This article: https://phys.org/news/2020-01-quantum-chips-correctly.html contains a lot of information on efforts to validate the correctness of computations made on quantum computing engines. Readers of previous blog posts on this site have seen that there is a lot of skepticism by experts in the field of Computer Science around the practicality of quantum computation in real-world use cases.
This is article discusses a number of interesting aspects of the disciplines involved with quantum computing.

This article: https://www.quantamagazine.org/a-new-approach-to-multiplication-opens-the-door-to-better-quantum-computers-20190424/ explains how quantum computers and “entanglement” (read some of the earlier posts on Quantum Computing) have certain drawbacks when it comes to classical computing tasks.
It is interesting and sheds some light on how these complex machines work. Enjoy.

On Quantum Computing
The general public has shown great interest in quantum computing. Largely due to explanations in the general press these machines seem increasingly powerful and “real”. I recently found this article that explains the technology better than anything I have seen elsewhere. The article is from IEEE Spectrum and is written by Mikhail Dyakonov .
Enjoy.
