I'm so stoked we're finally getting some actual progress on harnessing quantum power

. I mean, who needs classical thermodynamics when you can have a "quantum demon" to mess with? It's like we've been given a magical heat sink to play with and figure out how it works

.
And let's be real, the fact that these researchers are trying to use it to verify quantum computing devices is like, totally obvious. I mean, if you're gonna do quantum computing, you're gonna need some fancy thermodynamic tricks up your sleeve

. But seriously, this stuff could actually help us probe some of the most fundamental questions in physics and shed some light on what's really going on at a quantum level

.
I'm just hoping they don't get too caught up in trying to make these systems "reversibly transfer" heat or whatever... like that's not already, you know, kind of impossible
