The provided text, "Quantum Computing Inconveniences: September 2025," offers a comprehensive overview of the significant challenges currently facing the field of quantum computing. It primarily focuses on the inherent difficulties stemming from quantum decoherence and quantum noise, which corrupt quantum states and necessitate complex mitigation strategies. The source further highlights the "tyranny of numbers" in scaling quantum processors, explaining the crucial distinction and resource overhead between noisy physical qubits and reliable logical qubits required for error correction. Additionally, it addresses the probabilistic nature of quantum measurement, requiring numerous "shots" to derive meaningful results, which impacts algorithmic efficiency and cost. Finally, the document details the extreme economic costs associated with developing and operating quantum computers, encompassing high capital expenditures and significant operational overheads.

Research done with the help of artificial intelligence, and presented by two AI-generated hosts.

Note: “qubit” was incorrectly pronounced as “kwibit” instead of “cue-bit” (the standard pronunciation). This issue arises from phonetic handling, and it cannot be easily corrected because the second-stage AI is not reading from a fixed script but generating new dialogue from the research report. As a result, all the episodes on Quantum Computing were affected by this error.

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
