In explaining quantum technology, professor of physics and director of the
MIT Center for Quantum Computing, Will Oliver cites MIT's
interdisciplinarity as a key component in developing these technologies. In
this video he, along with research scientist Jeff Grover, explore the
origins of quantum mechanics and the state of quantum computing today.

Dive deeper into quantum computing with online courses and programs
available through MIT OpenCourseWare, MITx, and MIT xPRO at Open Learning:

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology is an independent, coeducational,
privately endowed university in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Our mission is to
advance knowledge; to educate students in science, engineering, technology,
humanities and social sciences; and to tackle the most pressing problems
facing the world today. We are a community of hands-on problem-solvers in
love with fundamental science and eager to make the world a better place.

The MIT YouTube channel features videos about all types of MIT research,
including the robot cheetah, LIGO, gravitational waves, mathematics, and
bombardier beetles, as well as videos on origami, time capsules, and other
aspects of life and culture on the MIT campus. Our goal is to open the
doors of MIT and bring the Institute to the world through video.

PS: I've never heard before that my house in Lexington's coordinates on the
planet [Latitude: 42.423130 Longitude: -71.196777 Elevation: 75.00 meters
msl] {for my house footprint at grade}
are a Qbit superimposing the North and South Poles

PPS: sounds like it could be the origin of a new class of Pole-ish Jokes
