For newcomers, I and @vincentmourik.bsky.social wrote the 2012 Science article that literally started the Microsoft technical effort to build topological qubits.

The paper is okay, and it includes a lot of negative evidence in the supplement (i made sure of it), 🧵

Today I was asked in an interview about folks who use the weirdness of ✨quantum✨ to hawk pseudoscience junk. I think that kind of grift proliferates because of a big misunderstanding a lot of folks have about quantum mechanics, which is not really their fault!
