Using a conventional computer and cutting-edge mathematical
tools and code, physicists at the Center for Computational
Quantum Physics (CCQ) at the Simons Foundation's Flatiron
Institute and collaborators at Boston University have cracked
a daunting quantum physics problem previously claimed to be
solvable only by quantum computers.

The technique is so groundbreaking in its efficiency that
the researchers were even able to use a personal laptop to
solve the problem.

By enabling scientists to squeeze extra problem-solving power
from classical computers, the breakthrough methodology is
opening new avenues for research on quantum dynamics and may
be useful as a protocol for solving problems about finding
the optimal solution amid an abundance of feasible ones.

. . .

   "Better way" apparently ... how to fake what quantum
   computers do - efficiently.

   This doesn't mean quantum computing is obsolete, but
   it means that lower-end q-processing may not be so
   much needed. Bigger quantum units will still have
   a valuable place. Those seem to be coming along nicely.
   Alas they ARE large and expensive and quirky. IBM and
   a few others HAVE found ways to reduce/compensate for
   the 'quirky' aspects.
