[Cryptography] Why Quantum Cryptanalysis is Bollocks

[Joshua Marpet]

Amazing. Amusing. Hilarious! I have found significant issues, however. You
mention to "Pull the emergency stop" but the illustration CLEARLY shows a
push is required, not a pull!!!!

In all seriousness, I am asked on a regular basis to explain quantum
computing, quantum decryption, and the likely consequences. Currently
writing a short response to a question about how quantum computing and
GenAI could work together. :).

While I am immensely amused by your paper, I wonder if the renewed Moore's
law in the quantum realm (I had to say it, it was too good!), may prove you
wrong. <shrug> it's worth a thought.

We shall see. I remain fascinated. At the very least, Quantum computing is
useful to bring attention to the world of cryptography, and the general
craptacular implementation of most cryptographic systems. After all, some
of my most consistent advisory calls are "Is self-signed bad?"
