Science Journal should write a response to the critics:

'Your silly whining demonstrates your total inferiority.'

Science Journal published the condemnation. That is the key issue. They gave a semblance of credibility to the position

Fire all of them

They should probably be more concerned that the "public arena" has no freaking clue what a quantum computer is...nor do they care.

Many established research and academic institutions are becoming so fricking terrible these days, not just university's, but the nature of institutional academia as a whole.

They are in such a rush to disprove any new ideas, that they are suffocating anything truly radical and innovative in their fields.

Yes, peer review and all of that shite absolutely is needed, but the drive to slam out of the box thinking, particularly as it relates to ideas that may compete with string theory, is out of control and counter productive.

I really think we need a paradigm shift in the way we view innovative thinkers in the realms of physics, economics and some of these other areas.

Getting published, getting tenure, and the bureaucracy of academia has gotten in the way of true exploration. Its hard to fully trust what they are saying as the economists and physicists are so afraid of being wrong they try and cut down any countering theories - hopefully it is simply unrealized bias and can be moved away from in the future.
