Trapped ion people acknowledge that they can't put a million qubits in on chip (TODO why) so they are already thinking of ways to entangle separate chips. Thinking is maybe the key word here. One of the propoesd approaches inolves optical links. Universal Quantum for example explicitly rejects that idea in favor of electric field link modularity.

Just ignore the electron electron interactions.

Bibliography:

Double cover of $SO(3)$.

Isomorphic to the quaternions.

TODO understand better, mentioned e.g. at Subtle is the Lord by Abraham Pais (1982) page 20, and is something that Einstein worked on.

Ciro Santilli likes Magic: The Gathering and he was pleased when he learned that Steve Wozniak does too, and has an expensive collection: redsunsoft.com/2019/03/how-a-post-to-play-magictg-turned-into-an-afternoon-with-the-woz/

Makes RNA from RNA.

Used in Positive-strand RNA virus to replicate.

I don't think it's present outside viruses. Well regulated organisms just transcribe more DNA instead.

Basically a synonym for second quantization.
