I don't have much to say other than this is fucking huge. The last record for a quantum processor, first set at the University of Waterloo, Canada, was a whole 5 qubits.
Now, as explained in the article below, D-Wave's (also Canadian) flagship 2000Q quantum computer is a "quantum annealer", which is a different type of framework and one that's much easier to scale, but it still clocks in at an insane 2000 qubits.

It's often the outcasts, the iconoclasts ... those who have the least to lose because they
don't have much in the first place, who feel the new currents and ride them the farthest.
