Ask HN: As a developer – should I be getting ready for quantum computing?
Consider the alternatives to focus on :
1. Being just really good at what I do
2. Climbing the management ladder
Now for your question on Quantum Computing, yes you should be getting ready for it, as it will be new technology that will help you grow. It is going to take some time to grasp what quantum computing is, the internals of it, and your going to need some time to go through creating basic applications so you can learn how to apply them to real-world problems.
So, to get you started, as those who sit and wait to be taught are those that get left behind.
