    Germany is leading in optical computing. Simply why should the EU now invest in a soon to be obsolete technology?

      hah, calling silicon-based computing “soon to be obsolete” is surely something ;-)

      it’s like calling solar energy a “soon to be obsolete” technology because surely we’ll invent fusion power / small modular reactors in a few years. how many SMRs have been deployed so far?

      where can i buy these optical computers today?
