Does Moore's law apply to quantum computing?
Plain and simple. Does Moore's law apply to quantum computing, or is it similar but with the numbers adjusted (ex. triples every 2 years). Also, if Moore's law doesn't apply, why do qubits change it?

Does the D-Wave 2000Q satisfy DiVincenzo's criteria?
DiVincenzo's criteria for quantum computation are the following:
A scalable physical system with well characterized qubits.
The ability to initialize the state of the qubits to a simple fiducial

types of states that can be created with a given number of entangling gates
I want to know if it is possible to say something in general about the "richness" or "complexity" of quantum states that can be created using a given number of entangling 2-qubit ...
