What will you call your antagonist's Engima-like machine/algo/system in your hypothetical scifi novel (that you mention in your [3blue1brown cameo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQWpF2Gb-gU))?

Who is your favorite comedian? What is your favorite comedy movie/show/form?

Can you share your intuition about where the quantum speed ups come from?

I know "doing everything in parallel" is wrong. Is there some next best explanation for the speed up?

Are there classes of problems that we've proven solutions don't speed up on quantum computers?

Are there classes of problems where solutions have greater than quadratic speed ups on quantum computers?

[nsfw] Performing Cunnilingus Like A God

Not a skill many men acquire but it's an easy way to keep women sexually interested. Men treat sex like it's a reward they earn for buying stuff, acting tough, and fixing stuff around the house. That's only true if your girl doesn't enjoy sex too. 

The anatomy lesson and primary techniques (pancake and vortex) take 10 minutes to learn, yet put you in the 80th percentile of sexually learned men. Women are orgasmically underserved and men rarely perform cunnilingus. Good cunnilingus is more rare -- intuition is not a guide and, as in all things, women want you to read their mind. Read the article, or any article on the matter, or watch a video, if you don't read minds.

Of course, a few more 10s of minutes learning about things surrounding intercourse, other pleasure giving forms, and pound town basics will make you even better. Cunnilingus is the GOAT tho cuz it's intimate, validating, and disarming at the same time.
