The threats and the disadvantages of quantum computers and cybersecurity Introduction The development of new generation computers that can solve complex scientific problems depends on quantum mechanics to unlock every single digital vault globally. Quantum mechanics has been behind the idea of quantum computing which will be able to perform computations in seconds that have taken years for conventional computers. These computers will enable improved weather forecasting, logistical planning, financial analysis, a simplified approach towards searching for earthlike planets and discovering new drugs. However, despite this advantage that is presented by quantum computers, they will compromise bank records, passwords on computers and private communication globally. This compromise is because modern cryptography has been based on encoding data that is in large numerical combinations and quantum computers have the potential to guess these numbers instantly. Expectations on quantum computing will be revolutionary, as expected, however, so far and in the future, there are some threats and disadvantages on cybersecurity. The purpose of this paper is to assess the foreseeable and existing risks and disadvantages of quantum computers and cybersecurity. Quantum Computers…

Impacts of Liberalisation to the energy prices in the UK The issue of liberalization of the energy sector in the UK begun in the 1990s after the electricity act was adopted in 1989. The reasons for liberalization in this sector was to increase the consumers’ welfare by decreasing the prices of electricity in the country, promote energy efficiency, and encourages the use of renewable sources of energy, to introduce freedom of choice to the customers through opening up the energy market to competition just like what happens in the other sectors and also to guarantee the security of electricity.

MONEY TALK #7 Yes, I do concur with the author. For instance, the decrease in the competitive balance of Major League Baseball (MLB) since 1990 was due to the conundrum of variance in income from television as well as media rights. This variance increased over time and is among the primary sources of the gap in payrolls, which is typically linked to the gap in quality, which is thus cited as a problem to competitive balance (Haupert, N.d). This meant that other teams were more powerful and influential as they had the capacity to attract talented individuals, thus contributing to the competitive imbalance. This was the same in the NBA as teams were able to attract players via lucrative contracts. This was until revenue sharing was introduced to overcome the imbalance as it facilitated the redistribution of the funds from the wealthiest to the poorest teams. It is also factual that there was a decrease in the competitive balance of the American League and a subsequent increase in the National League between 1975 and 1999 (Naghshbandi et al., 2011) because…
Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Healthcare System Organization and Finance Within the healthcare sphere, the interdisciplinary concept refers to the involvement of health professionals from distinct disciplines and patients working hand-in-hand as a team (Kabene, Orchard, Howard, Soriano, & Leduc, 2006). Therefore, when discussing the interdisciplinary perspectives on healthcare organization and finance, the account of each stakeholder is profiled. The entire interdisciplinary team agrees that adequate financing of healthcare providers is essential for them to provide sufficient healthcare services to all people (ACCA, 2014). An additional mutual perspective is that the fee-for-service system, commonly abbreviated as FFS, is a retrospective payment approach. It is believed that this system often provides incentives for healthcare providers to deliver more productive care. On the organization of the healthcare system, the prevailing idea is that everyone who has a stake in the domain must provide inputs for decision-making (ACCA, 2014). These perspectives have critical implications for business principles. For example, the consensus has the potential to drive the patient and system cost factors down. The unity in the perspectives implies that there is an agreement in…
Effects of the Cold War on U.S. Economics Introduction War comes along with numerous disturbances that cause instabilities within a country and jeopardize the fabric of the country. Cold war, therefore, is referred to as a dominating and influential factor in the United States of America’s society for the better part of the late 20th century. The cold war was elicited by the variation of ideologies between the United States of America and the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union was in representation of authoritarianism and communism while America was in the image of capitalism and democracy. A fight, therefore, erupted due to a conflict on who was supposed to take over the authority. America and Soviet Unions are known to be full of superpowers, therefore, as the war continued, global conflict emerged, thus extrapolating critical effects on the rest of the countries in the world.
