Quantum computers keep losing data. This breakthrough finally tracks it Quantum computers struggle with a major flaw: their information vanishes unpredictably. Scientists have now created a new method that can measure this loss over 100 times faster than before. By tracking changes in near real time, researchers can finally see what’s going wrong inside these systems. This could be a big step toward making quantum computers stable and practical.

The new approach could reshape how scientists test and fine-tune quantum processors. By better understanding the tiny processes that limit performance, researchers can work toward more stable and reliable machines.

Trump's economic weaponization hurts ASEAN as free trade hub Deeper commercial integration with great powers backfires amid rising protectionism

While ASEAN accounts for 3.6% of global GDP & 7.7% of world trade, it absorbed as much as 15% of global FDI inflows in 2024. FDI growth in ASEAN has accelerated in recent years. Since 2021, inflows have exceeded $200 billion annually.

John Cusack wants to talk about paywalls. The movie star says that by selling their public-records-based reporting, news outlets are compromising one of journalism’s essential civic roles.

What Happens When Quantum Becomes Practical The Quantum Insider (TQI) is the leading online resource dedicated exclusively to Quantum Computing.

Much of the internet still depends on cryptographic methods introduced in the 1970s, and quantum computing shifts the mathematical assumptions they were built on. For enterprises, cloud providers and governments, this is a long-term infrastructure consideration that requires planning.

Researchers Beam Wireless Power From a Moving Airplane Can we beam space-based solar power back to Earth? Startup Overview Energy demonstrates wireless power beaming from a moving aircraft.

Startup company plans to launch satellites into geosynchronous orbit to collect unfiltered solar energy where the sun never sets and then beam this abundance back to humanity. The solar energy would be transferred as near-infrared waves and received by existing solar panels on the ground.
