Diversity is resilience; no need to standardize on curves or "post-quantum" IBM bullshit if other approaches still work perfectly fine.

And if the pros are using typewriters in 2026 it's not a signal for me to put even more eggs into the US-megacorp dominated basket who treat me like an NPC who can be droned at will.

An important skill to develop is determining whether somebody is bullshitting you. Because it would be impossible for any one human to perfectly understand all of these concepts, right? So when I read this person's blog post, I felt I could trust him, based on what I know about work he's done previously. I'm not saying you should trust me on this, or even blindly trust him, but look at his body of work, and the sources he cites, and make the call for yourself: https://words.filippo.io/crqc-timeline/

What the hell are you talking about? What pros use typewriters for what (to write code?)?

I get reluctance about being dependent from the US but your reason seems a bit off
