Wikipedia:

Quantum annealing (QA) is a general method for finding the global minimum of a given objective function over a given set of candidate solutions (candidate states), by a process using quantum fluctuations.[1][2] It is used mainly for problems where the search space is discrete (combinatorial optimization problems) with many local minima; such as finding the ground state of a spin glass employing quantum tunneling [3] (across the barriers separating the global minimum from the local minima or spin configurations).

Really?

I strongly disagree with the quantum annealing approach.  It clearly favors the local minimums and discriminates against the local maximums.  Without the local maximums there would never be a mean.  I demand that this topic be removed on this basis.

This is actually where the thread was heading…

then into

aka 'the god particle'

then back to the dude who had his Easter post pulled

I see where your going... pretty amazing stuff. 

interesting how locheed martin bought the first one and they are probably the biggest weapon manufacturer.
