I also think it's interesting that the breaking entanglement
is still delayed at the speed of light.

Awesome. Science is amazing, and just gets amazinger. It's
neat to read about all these incredible technological
innovations on science websites, but strange that I never
hear this stuff on the news.

This line really sucked, though-

''Quantum teleportation could be harnessed for fast,
powerful computers or communication networks.''

Not interested. Teleport me to another continent, that's the
shit I want. Faster communication networks, fuck... who
cares. It's plenty fast already, too fast. Stop
communicating with me and start beaming me up, Scotty.

they actually do not teleport mass, they teleport properties
from one photon to another. like copy-pasting

and people arent photons

so too bad :\

Well then why don't they start focusing on what's IMPORTANT?
People. People that are lazy.

cool stuff

this makes me wanna give up chemical engineering and study
quantum physics. its the future (but its too damn
complicated :D)

that's really cool, but why doesn't fiber-optic cable
qualify as a "physical link"? when i think of
teleportation, i think of something like what they describe
at the bottom of the page - sending information to
satellites with nothing in-between. i'm not an expert, but
this article is a bit misleading, i think.

or people that we all desperately want to be.. "somewhere
else"..

Well they just used the fiber optic cable to move the photon
away from the other photon. The actual switching of
properties wouldn't

Is anyone else slightly worried that JAroen said Chemical
Enginnering?
