The slogan "If you think you understand quantum mechanics, you don't understand quantum mechanics" is condescending, and a plague to quantum science. We understand quantum mechanics as well as—arguably, much better than—many other physical disciplines. nytimes.com/2019/09/07/opini…

Just announced: We are partnering with @intel and @HRLLaboratories on semiconductor quantum computing, thanks to the LPS Qubit Collaboratory. We'll receive state-of-the-art devices, and Intel and HRL will learn more about their chips. #MidwestQuantum news.wisc.edu/partnerships-b…

Ever wished you had quantum dots, but not had quantum dots, and been sad as a result? Cheer up. The doctor is in. And the only prescription. Is HRL quantum dots. hrl.com/news/2023/06/14/hrl-…

I jest. I'll be reading up on ZNE. Seems powerful!

The whole concept of "New York pizza" feels like mass delusion to me... it's like standard greasy junk food. But 8 million people, with only other American pizza to comparre to, have some sentimental attachment to it. Yeh I said it.

The shining example of the growth in clean energy investment is solar, which in 2023 is set to attract more capital than global oil production for the first time ever This reflects the changing tide in world energy Read more in @IEA's new report 👉 iea.li/43jx6Pi

An infinite number of mathematicians walk into a bar. The 1st orders a beer. The 2nd orders a half of a beer. The 3rd orders a quarter of a beer. The 4th begins to order, but the bartender cuts him off, saying "You guys need to know your limits." He puts 2 beers on the bar.

Here's an interesting and famous example that goes back to the 1800s.  Write four nonnegative integers around a circle. Replace each pair of neighboring numbers, a and b, with their absolute difference, |b-a|. We now have four new numbers on the circle. Repeat, repeat,... 1/6

A little about where and how Coalton and Common Lisp are used, and language-oriented software development more broadly. It's was a very short talk for a physics conference, so it either has far too few or way too many details. 😬 youtube.com/watch?v=F8TezGqC…

Me: I need a mason jar Ball Corp: No problem, here's our 32oz mason jar. Anything else? Me: You wouldn't happen to know where I can get the optics for the world's most advanced space telescope? Ball Corp: You're not gonna believe this

Our paper “Universal logic with encoded spin qubits in silicon” will soon appear in Nature magazine. In this paper, we have demonstrated full control over two encoded qubits using only the exchange interaction. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
