Hopefully nobody reads this comment of mine, but there's something I've been drying to get off my chest.

With no evidence, I believe that there is a quantum computing algorithm for fusion. It feels like there might be some way of using quantum computers to fuse "qubits" in such a way as to generate netenergy, one particle at a time.

But of course, ancients fantasized a boat could land on the moon.

You can't get energy out of computation. This follows directly from mathematical principles and the definition of energy.
