At least for me and my classmates, we got a lot more wrong before we got right. Nothing is worse in this world than an undergrad fresh out of an intro quantum class with a neutered Schrodinger's equation and whatever nonsense pseudo-philosophy they picked up to deal with it. After taking a proper mathematical methods class you start to get the beginnings of an intuition for what's going on for quantum mechanics.
I agree. EPR states and Quantum teleportation gave us a reality check during our QC course. The university I come from did however teach linear algebra, ODEs and PDEs, etc as mandatory courses.
I don’t disagree that computer science intuition isn’t interesting, or that CS people can’t contribute. There are plenty of deep connections all over the place. You can conjecture all you want. My issue is with the tone.
Quantum computing is an elective at every half-decent University.
To think that programmers have zero understanding beyond high school math is just ignorant.
