Quantum computers require precise time measurement for manipulating quantum states, but new research has revealed a fundamental limitation: clocks cannot achieve perfect resolution and precision simultaneously due to their finite energy and entropy generation. This imposes inherent constraints on quantum computing’s capabilities. As quantum technology advances, overcoming these time measurement challenges will become critical, possibly leading to new discoveries in quantum mechanics.Quantum computing is becoming more…

Last fall, Google caused an uproar by announcing that it would begin winding down support for Manifest V2 extensions in Chrome in 2023. Because this would have a largely negative impact on several popular extensions, including ad blockers, the backlash was swift. Google ended up scrapping those plans and postponing the migration to Manifest V3. But it did not cancel those plans, and last week, the company announced that the transition is back on. According to product manager David Li, Google will begin…
