Subj : Quantum Bits To : 80BENJAMIN COX From : Kenneth Udut Date : Sat Feb 08 2020 13:42:00 -=> Quoting Benjamin Cox to All I had an idea several months ago about a program called "Quantum BC> Bits". It would speed up the computer tremedously, literally unlocking BC> the power of the processor. More on Quantum Bits idea below the following --- Reminds me of a Trinary computer system idea I had back in the mid 80's (along with probably every teenager hacker nerd of the day), where you'd have three states: OFF OFF DON'T KNOW Of course, the "don't know", if it were electrical shades of gray could be infinite. But the current set of electronics technology (the Radio Shack variety, which I do not denigrate - I still have a spot in my heart for Radio Shack) - the kind in computers today as a whole - would probably not lend themselves to that kind of processing. Of course, they DO have a system, but it's entirely far more open than I had been thinking: the Neural networking, whereby each connection gets a weight-of-importance instead of an on/off status. I still think trinary has merit. QUANTUM BITS Is it one of those cosmic visions? Whereby everything suddenly makes sense and is crystal clear, but impossible to explain without sounding dumb? I enjoy getting those. There's nobody to explain that stuff too, which is annoying, but sometimes, if you explain what you saw to the best of your ability, you may get a small following. You may even get so much as to form a cult. I'm all for it, in all honesty. I like a good following. Good luck -- explain your theories a bit more though, instead of poking fun at my monkey ancestry.
