From Punch Cards to Quantum Computing

Your smartphone absolutely destroys the supercomputers of the past. It all started with

the Intel 4004 in 1971, a chip that could barely handle basic math,

while we stored data on paper cards with actual holes in them. We went from massive

room-sized machines like the Serbian CER-10 to people soldering their own DIY computers

called Galaksija just to play games in the eighties. Now, we are staring at

quantum computers that solve problems in seconds that would take traditional machines millions

of years. We aren't just computing anymore; we are literally bending physics to process

data.
