Profile
Dave Bacon is a theoretical ski bum who is also a pseudo professor. His research is on quantum computing, his scientific passions extend to everything in physics, mathematics, computer science and beyond, and his personal pleasures include making wine, playing poker, skiing, camping, and daydreaming (although not all of those at the same time.)
Nothing he says on this blog should be construed as having anything to do with his employer or his dog.

It just occurred to me how cool it would be if TFA stood for transfinite automaton.

I noticed that "wtfa lolcat soda" is a google golf hit. It returns exactly one result.
Or at least it was, until I usied the word "soda" here.
