I have this awful feeling that we will develop quantum computing in a really big way – it will produce miraculous results, solve all sorts of really gnarly problems – and only then will we realize we’re thinning the aetheric cosmos to paper thinness and desperately imperiling the substrate of reality itself.

Makes global warming trivial in comparison!
