The G+ post explains what it’s good for pretty well, doesn’t it?
It’s not a dramatic improvement (yet), but it’s a larger potential speedup than anything else I’ve seen on the protein-folding problem lately.
You can duplicate that D-Wave machine on a laptop.
True, but somewhat besides the point; it’s the asymptotic speedup that’s interesting.
...you know, assuming the thing actually does what they claim it does. sigh
Also no asymptotic speedup.
