Hey it's me, ur brother. What's our mothers maiden name?

Classical computer programmer here, I've got a couple questions.

With all the ways we can solve problems efficiently with classical computers, and the small subset of problems that can be solved with QC, how do you guys see the synergistic relationship of CC and QC moving forward? The way I see it a QC would make a good "sub-processor" for a CC, kind of like a class in OOP, where you can call upon the QC classically to return something that would take a CC longer to compute.

What do you guys think of new computing architectures like SyNAPSE? Could tech like this combined with QC possibly alleviate concerns about the Moore's Law ceiling?

I'm working in the IT field as a Data Analyst, but I've always been endlessly fascinated with academic research. I want to contribute, but I don't want to stop working either. I'm slowly working on my BS degree after obtaining my AA recently. Is there any way I can get involved with research if I'm not a full time student?

I figured there would be a pretty high barrier to entry as far as knowledge goes. Thanks for the information!

I had done some research about quantum tunneling and electrons jumping circuits, so the barrier to miniaturization is probably insurmountable for sure.

The reason I asked about neuromorphic computing is the raw computing capacity of the Von-Neumann architecture is severely limited due to bottlenecks, which is supposedly alleviated with the new tech. I hadn't considered the heat dissipation problem, however. It makes sense that we'd still run into those fundamental issues.
