Replication of Quantum Factorisation Records with an 8-bit Home Computer, an Abacus, and a Dog

Peter Gutmann, Stephan Neuhaus: “We anticipate that, as with current sleight-of-hand factorisations, researchers will in the future construct more sophisticated sleight-of-hand manipulations to allow even these rules to be bypassed. We therefore expect that updates to these rules will need to be made in the future as they are penetration-tested by quantum factorisers.”
