  2. Workings of the system on Time Running Out for Public Key Encryption · · Score: 1

    How the quantum computer solves the public key encryption:

    1. Put box on computer

    2. Let it randomly generate and test primes

    In this state the computer virtually exists in an infinite number of states of which some will have randomly generated the secret primes.

    The problem however lies within the observer;

    3. Take off the box and the infinite number of states collapse in only one observed state; which is very unlikely to be the computer-state that hit the secret primes

    The solution to this problem is found to be one of the category 'I would have though of that'.

    4. Once an instance of the computer has found the primes it will bump off the box.

    The box moves, and the states-timeline collapses to the only possible state and instantly the computer that found the primes will always have been in there.

    OK, do we in this world have a problem with not sufficient randomness in our keys or something?

  13. Re:A rare case on House Passes Patent Overhaul Bill · · Score: 1

    In Holland we say 'Een kat in het nauw maakt rare sprongen'.

    Translated; 'A cat in panic makes weird jumps'.

    Microsoft is being increasingly unpredictable (SCO -> linux deals -> OOXML -> little-patents) so I think it will be more and more scarier for small businesses to go non-Microsoft because of this.

    I totally agree with you, in that I don't understand the happy responses from slashdotters.

    Now they can sue you for little pieces, and have a greater chance of winning since you don't talk about the whole product and thus what is being fought is all that matters and cant be thrown aside as irrelevant.
