minus-square@frezik@midwest.sociallinkfedilink2•4 months agoWouldn’t noise in the circuit mean it’d only be reliable to certain level of precision, anyway?
minus-square@Chadus_Maximus@lemm.eelinkfedilink1•edit-24 months agoI mean, every irrational number used in computation is reliable to a certain level of precision. Just because the current (heh) methods aren’t precise enough doesn’t mean they’ll never be.
