I have to disagree. The same people who won't think existed in previous generations as well. The only difference was, they blindly regurgitated what Bob Martin et. al were saying.

Particle boards with wood grain stickers are the actual good stuff now. Ikea is literally selling cardboard with woodgrain stickers (that's not a joke).

At this point in time there is no indication that quantum computers will ever solve a useful problem. Even if there is one it's not likely to be profitable.
