Google and NASA have struck a deal with Canadian quantum computing company D- Wave to keep them stocked with hardware for at least the next seven years. D-Wave claims its current tech is up to 15 times faster than regular computers. Quantum computers could help create better algorithms for complex problems like air traffic control. Alaskan officials are investigating a grisly crime near Cape Lisburne, where 25 walruses - including a dozen calves - were found shot and beheaded. Native Alaskans can kill walruses for food, but killing them just for their tusks is against the law.
