Using quantum in a macro-scale physical model is a bit like using the
unsafe keyword in C#. You can put an old stuff in there but be careful what you do with it

No beginning ... no ending ... ?
I knew this was a bad movie !
«I'm asked why doesn't C# implement feature X all the time. The answer's always the same: because no one ever designed, specified, implemented, tested, documented, shipped that feature. All six of those things are necessary to make a feature happen. They all cost huge amounts of time, effort and money.» Eric Lippert, Microsoft, 2009

Everything has a beginning and an end. Otherwise, I'm reminded of Spaceballs.
Colonel Sandurz: Try here. Stop.
[Corporal stops the tape, then Dark Helmet and Sandurz come across an image of themselves viewing the screen. As they react, the screen mimics what they are doing]
Dark Helmet: What the hell am I looking at?! When does this happen in the movie?!
Colonel Sandurz: "Now". You're looking at "now", sir. Everything that happens now [indicates himself and Helmet] is happening "now". [Indicates the screen]
Dark Helmet: What happened to "then"?
Colonel Sandurz: We passed "then".
Dark Helmet: When?
Colonel Sandurz: Just now. Were at "now," now.
Dark Helmet: Go back to "then"!
Colonel Sandurz: When?
Dark Helmet: Now!
Colonel Sandurz: Now?
Dark Helmet: Now!
Colonel Sandurz: I can't.
Dark Helmet: Why?!
Colonel Sandurz: We missed it.
Dark Helmet: When?!
Colonel Sandurz: Just now.
Dark Helmet: ... When will "then" be "now"?
Colonel Sandurz: Soon.
Dark Helmet: [backpedals in shock] How soon?

What about a circle?

How did the circle become a circle?

I'm sure it took a circuitous route.

Microsoft just patched a 15-year-old bug that in some cases allows attackers to take complete control of PCs running all supported versions of Windows. The critical vulnerability will remain unpatched in Windows Server 2003, leaving that version wide open for the remaining five months Microsoft pledged to continue supporting it.

Microsoft appears to be reacting quickly to the news as it looks like the patch has already been pulled after there were a significant number of users reporting the freezing issue, as we no longer see it on our machines when we run Windows Update. "One thing is fixed, another falls apart."

Most aspects of programming style are matters of taste, and taste is subjective. My style is, of course, the only correct one. "And I can not lie"
And a bunch of other articles from that issue

Whitespace Supremicists unite!

We can unite on the white space, if we disagree on every other part.

At one college I attended, the lab was a half-story lower than other parts of the building and there were windows from the main lobby looking down into it.
So visitors could watch us hacking away on the state-of-the-art VT100s.

VT100s? You were spoiled! We only had pathetic VT52s - and we had to write text packed into integers in FORTRAN IV!
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Security consultant Mark Burnett has just published 10 million passwords along with their corresponding usernames. It's a thoughtful offering to other researchers—but a legally risky move given the current legal situation surrounding hacking. "Defend me from my friends; I can defend myself from my enemies."

How much does Microsoft want you to sign up for Bing Rewards? About 100 gigabytes' worth. The price is right anyway (sorry, seems to be US-only)
