I'm working on the April 2025 for the Quantum Doom Clock, which you should all subscribe to! Here's some tidbits from last months update: QDC now projects March 8, 2028 as the breaking point for cryptocurrency security. Major quantum systems from Amazon, Microsoft, and IQM show error rates approaching 10^-4, accelerating the timeline by several months. That is some scary fast progress 🤓 Tech leaders are revising quantum timelines dramatically: 🕛 Gates: "useful in 3-5 years." 🕧 Pichai: "practical applications in 5-10 years." 🕐 Krishna: "remarkable progress by decade's end." 🚨 The threat to cryptographic foundations is imminent. 🚨 Major breakthroughs are accelerating development: Amazon's Ocelot, Microsoft's Majorana 1, and massive funding ($400M+) flowing into quantum computing. The clock is ticking for current encryption methods. ⏱️ Visit https://quantumdoomclock.com and sign up to get the latest. Update goes out next week!

Assuming accurate reporting, we all need to condemn the recent arrest of Telegram’s #PavelDurov in France regardless of how you feel about him or Telegram. Refusing to moderate other’s speech is not terrorism. It is not conspiracy to commit a crime. Pavel’s arrest is a stain on the central fraternity between France and the US in supposedly being the world’s defenders of free speech and liberty. France is continuing an unfortunate tradition our governments have of ignoring our values whenever it is convenient. This is both wrong and short sighted. While I understand the “Telegram is not E2EE and gives full access to Russia” sentiment (e.g., https://www.wired.com/story/the-kremlin-has-entered-the-chat/ ), I believe this is an L take. In this context, it is saying if you are capable of moderating then you should be required to do so per government orders.
