The automaker announced in September of 2021 that it would build the plant and a joint-venture battery factory on a 3,600-acre (1,460-hectare) parcel of land in rural Stanton, northeast of Memphis.

The program would help run the algorithm across quantum and classical computers depending on which system is most efficient in solving the problem. On Tuesday at its developer conference GTC, Nvidia unveiled CUDA Quantum, a platform for building quantum algorithms using popular classical computer coding languages C++ and python.

"CUDA Quantum will do the same for quantum computing, enabling domain scientists to seamlessly integrate quantum into their applications and gain access to a new disruptive computing technology," said Tim Costa, Nvidia's director of HPC and quantum.

President Biden´s pledge on Monday that "we´ll do whatever is needed" was needed. A new Federal Reserve program that offers subsidized loans to banks is also a good idea under the circumstances.

Much of the Pentagon spending went to just five huge corporations.

So what´s the problem? Worse, Moderna´s profits will fund trials of other vaccines in development, including for cancer. Under the Affordable Care Act, Americans with private insurance won´t have to pay a penny out-of-pocket for the vaccines. Moderna will also offer free vaccines to the uninsured. Moderna will profit from its innovation.
