...parents might not be inviting the JQI team to perform at their kids' birthday parties anytime soon, but what the quantum trick lacks in showmanship, it makes up for in practical applications for future computers.

He was rewarded for his prescience with a sort of immortality: the famed "Moore's Law" is one of the venerable truths of the computer world. The rest of us were rewarded with...

Ireland's transformation in the 1990s was as sweeping as it was swift. Lured by low taxes and a young, well-educated workforce, multinational firms such as Intel, Dell and Hewlett-Packard set up shop, establishing Ireland as a bridge between the U.S. and Europe. Exports soared, helped by billions of dollars in E.U. development funds and the government's clever management of public finances.
