As folks have mentioned, the evolution of the Top500 shows that "world's fastest supercomputer" is no longer an EE feat: it's an infrastructure feat, and not much of one, either.

If you think the Chinese military is going to be using quantum computers before the American military, then you've got my attention.

I think that's an entirely realistic possibility.

China plans to launch a satellite named QUESS to perform quantum encryption and communication experiments later this month. They also have some other quantum computing projects that seem to be going well.
