#computing #google - Willow: Has Google cracked a key challenge in quantum computing? • FRANCE 24 English

18 December 2024

In this Science segment, we take a closer look at Google's announcement that it has cracked a key challenge in quantum computing, with a new chip capable of almost unfathomable speeds.

Dubbed Willow, the chip performed a standard test in under five minutes, whereas today's fastest supercomputers would have taken billions of years.

So what exactly is the quantum revolution and what is it set to change in our world? FRANCE 24's Julia Sieger tells us more. Read more about this story in our article: https://f24.my/AozB.y

Rich Man Poor Man Beggar Man ....

Larry Page is still the 5th richest man and I one of the poorest in respect of Google Adsense
January 1, 2008 - January 31, 2008 figures - 2,281 44 impressions - $9.01 - earnings ir $0.29 per day which is better that the previous month. I am not the only person moaning :)

Recently, many web-publishers reported drastic drops in their Google AdSense earnings and offered up many theories as to why that occurred. The problem was reported in web forums, on popular SEO blogs, and in the comments section of the last WebProNews article on the subject.

But as a part of that plan to maximize earnings, Google found a way to decrease what they paid out to publishers while increasing what they took in from advertisers. This would also help offset Google's recent moves against made-for-AdSense sites developed expressly for domain tasting, an action that costs Google a reported $3 million.

Admittedly though, when you're dealing in billions, a few million isn't much – unless you're trying to make estimates. But Google also reported a 30% increase in AdSense clicks over the fourth quarter 2006, and a 9% increase since the third quarter 2007. So over all, clicks are up. (Courtesy WebProNews)

GoodSense for Larry Page - the world´s fifth richest man
Badsense for their affiliates?

the www.itccommunications.net publishing group has nearly 2,000 pages on the internet with their various domains.
Our December taking $7.40 or $0.24 a day. Would you work for that? One day we gave Google 6 clicks and were rewarded with $0.01. Mr Page Slavery went out over a decade ago. Guess Google has many slaves Mr Page!
