It is ridiculous to think QMC hired Williams and Hartigan to work on the QDSC. I agree, and I never said they did. My full quote - not the deceptivly edited version: So, what you're claiming is that QMC, with their near zero staff that includes no programmers we know of, no money, and part-time CTO, in their free time between trying to develop and sell an AC product that has to compete with $billion companies with a head start and trying develop a commercially viable QDSC, something apparently very challenging as nobody has ever successfully done it... Hartigan likely isn't working on the development of anything, and part-time Williams must have his hands full with AC. There probably isn't anyone working on QDSC.
