The physicists have had it too good for too long!

T7

At the annual n-tuple of angry logicians.

Why is it that when huxters sell snake oil it's quantum this and uncertainty that! Computer science furnishes just as many opportunities to lie to the consumer!

Why aren't there meditation sessions where a guy in robes tells you the conscious mind is np-complete, but if you breathe properly then p=np?!

Godel! Godel says there are always truths that can't be proved within a logical system! Why is this not used to sell vitamin water or some fancy kind of enema?!

Our findings are just as easily misconstrued as theirs! Where is the "bqp sports drink"? Where is the chiropractor promising to cure your cancer in polynomial time?!

Don't tell me this stuff is unpopular because it's complicated! Stephen hawking sold a million books on black holes and spacetime and nobody has read a single page of them!

We demand equal representation. In the halls of quackery

We will not rest until error correction algorithms are said to detoxify your chakra/ we will not tire until there's a urine-cleansing tea called ptimeanda homeopathic urine-receptacle called pspace!

We will not stop until there is a magic crystal you put up your butt to make your microbiome turing-complete/

We could join the physicists and sell "quantum error correction" tablets.
