As a programmer and practitioner, I'm curious about what kinds of skills and training it takes to program quantum computers.

Can you shed some insight into what's really different about the tools and task of programming a quantum computer versus using classical programming languages and tools? Do you think quantum computer programming will rapidly become standard training for CS undergrads, or do you expect it to remain a niche skillset like FPGAs, etc, since it will only supplement and not replace classical computers.

Also, nice to meet you. Your essays have been inspiring over the years.
