Tangle Bits (Jingle Bells)

Page 1

"Tangle Bits" (to the tune of "Jingle Bells") John S. Bell, John S. Bell proved there is no way locally and classic'ly to make QM OK. (repeat) Einstein would have cried to see what Bell had done. Then Peter Shor supplied good news for everyone: Qubits are bizarre, but they can be a hoot. Let's accept them as they are and use them to compute! Tangle bits! Tangle bits! Tangle all the way! We don't need locality to make QM OK. (repeat) Reality's a "Bohr"; It keeps us so constrained. Without it we can score a factoring machine. To noise we must not fall, or else we'll decohere. So keep the errors small, and then we'll persevere. Tangle bits! Tangle bits! Tangle all the way! We don't need locality to make QM OK. (repeat) With cleverness and skill, we code our quantum bits. According to Pres-kill,


fault tolerance we'll hit. The threshold is quite strict. So don't yet buy your stock, in quantum Intel chips, or quantum Macintosh! Tangle bits! Tangle bits! Tangle all the way. We don't need locality to make QM OK. (repeat)
