Major quantum computing advance made obsolete by teenager (2018)

A teenager from Texas has taken quantum computing down a notch. In a paper posted online earlier this month, 18-year-old Ewin Tang proved that ordinary computers can solve an important computing problem with performance potentially comparable to that of a quantum computer. In its most practical form, the “recommendation problem” relates to how services like Amazon and Netflix determine which products you might like to try.

‘Percy Jackson and the Olympians’ Charts a Seafaring Course for Season 2

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-08-29 00:08:35

It was no surprise when Percy Jackson and the Olympians was renewed for a second season in early 2024—the Disney+ series was a hit when it premiered back in 2023, building on the popularity of Rick Riordan‘s fantasy-adventure novel series. Then—earlier this year, before season two even arrived—it was renewed for a third installment. That’s a huge boost of confidence for all involved, and the excitement came through in the show’s San Diego Comic-Con panel, held in the cavernous Hall H. Here’s Di
