Commercial quantum computers can be a great opportunity but they can be a great risk for security. 

The creation of the quantum computer is not cheap, or at least it's not free. And that means that getting funding from business life would help to find the money for that work. And this is one of the most interesting and in the same way dangerous thing. Even without machine rebellion, the quantum computer has even a billion times higher calculation capacity than the regular computers. And that thing causes risks in data security because the quantum computer can crack codes faster than ever before.  

That means that if the creators of a quantum computer can hide the existence of that system let's say about a couple of weeks, which means they can break the security codes of banks or some security or police organization what means that the identities of operators of those organizations would uncover. Or in the worst case, the control codes of nuclear power plants or missiles are at risk to break. 

The commercial quantum computer means that the service provider creates a quantum computer center and then rents the time of that incredible machine. But the quantum computer is an extremely powerful tool, and the renting of that machine allows that private corporations can use it for their purposes. 

And one of those purposes could be nuclear weapons and stealth material simulations. So in the scenarios, the foreign intelligence like the FSB and Chinese foreign intelligence can create a high-tech company in the Western world, and then rent the time from the quantum computer centers. 

The fact is that nobody even knows the capacities of the quantum computer. And if we want to calculate complicated calculations, what is consisting of things like the forms of the stealth aircraft and other layers the quantum computers would be excellent tools for that kind of works. In this case, we could simply rent the time from the quantum computers, and make the next-generation stealth fighters. 

The quantum computer makes it possible to make complicated flow calculations in minutes, even if those calculations have taken moths by using the regular computers. So that means that the time of the rent of the quantum computer center would not be very long if somebody wants to risk national security.

The story of (Northrop?) TR3A "Black Manta"

    Image I The story of (Northrop?) TR3A "Black Manta" Sometimes there have been discussions that the mysterious TR3A "Black Manta" was a study project for the B-2 bomber.  That means that TR3A was used as the flying mockup for testing the aerodynamic and control solutions for the B-2 "Spirit" bomber. The thing that supports this thing is that the manufacturer of both planes is Northrop corporation.  Along with "Aurora" was flying one other mysterious aircraft, TR3A "Black Manta". The system is described as the "Stealth VTOL" (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) aircraft. Unless the mysterious TR3B, the Northrop TR3A is the conventional VTOL-aircraft, what is using regular jet engines, but what has the stealth-body.  Image II The thing is that the stealth-reconnaissance aircraft, which uses a similar technology with the Northrop B-2 bomber would be an interesting part of the weapon arsenal. There is a possibility that the TR3A was...

Who really was Plato, the great philosopher?

When we are thinking about the great philosopher Plato, we are thinking about the man who established the Academy of Athens. And we might remember that this man was a traveler. He traveled in many places in his life and wrote many texts and books, which still is very respected thoughts about the state and other things. When we are looking at the books or series of books, we are facing the thing, that there were lots of texts. If we want to use criticism we must notice that the model of the ideal state is rising the kings in the very high position, and the thing would flatter the kings. And sometimes I have thought that maybe that famous model of the ideal state is written by somebody else. The thing is that the model, where the philosophers rule the state behind the lines of soldiers could be written for the persons like Justinian, who was really flattered. The thing is that this kind of writings was meant for flatter the rulers, who would not persecute philosophers, even they had d...

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies?

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies? The simplest way to control zombies, which are made by using tetrodotoxin, which is called "zombie poison" is to use the automatic dispenser, which is normally used in diabetes treatment. In this case, the dispenser would be loaded by using tetrodotoxin. If the level of this poison is right, the person would be totally under the control of other people. And if the system cannot detect this poison there is a possibility to make the laboratory experiment when the staff will follow the decrease of the tetrodotoxin, and then the system can use a simple clock, which will inject poison to the body of a victim after a certain time. This would be an effective tool in the hands of military and counter-terror operators. Those zombies can be captured enemy operators, who will send back, and then they just kill their ex-partners. By using genetically engineered bacteria could be possible to create t...
