Google Claims 'Quantum Supremacy'

Seems to me the thrust of the actual paper is:

> To demonstrate quantum supremacy, we compare our quantum processor against state-of-the-art classical computers in the task of sampling the output of a pseudo-random quantum circuit

So it's better at being itself than a classical computer simulating itself. I suppose this is _something_, but there's no demonstrable business value to doing that.

Why even write that sentence? It literally means nothing. From a tech perspective, it makes me completely doubt both the authors competency and googles supposed claim. It sounds alot like modern snake-oil salesmanship.
