Can a company outgrow Earth's economy? The claim is not crazy on long timescales. Saudi Aramco already approximates a whole nation's economy, tech megacaps now dwarf the entire stock market of 15 years ago, and history shows step-changes in growth (0.3% agrarian 2-3% industrial). North America's economy became larger than the economy of Europe. ... Read more

Shor's algorithm for factoring RSA-2048 (and related problems like elliptic-curve discrete logs) has seen dramatic reductions in estimated resources over the past 18 months. Theoretically breaking RSA-2048 would still require multi-day runtimes and billions of non-Clifford logical operations (primarily Toffoli gates) under realistic error rates (~0.1%) and cycle times. This remains far beyond near-term machines. ... Read more
