The overlap of computer science and theoretical quantum physics grew a little today when the journal Nature published a very cool new paper from scientists in Zurich.
What entropy means to software people is usually much different than what it means thermo-dynamics people. Turns out the concepts can be unified via a deeper understanding of quantum mechanics.
If you are a normal person you probably fell asleep reading the last two sentences. If you're an abnornal person and are interested in things like the ultimate limits of super-fast computers, it's worth a read.
Here's an article on the paper from Science Daily.
