Show me the worst picture you took of the eclipse.

I took a bunch of pictures of the sun but they are all shitty.

Instead, please see this pic of a bunch of strangers celebrating and enjoying astrophysics and nature during totality. It warmed my heart so much.

Me and my crew on our way to invade the Fire Nation

Fun fact — Anastasia Marchenkova was the first person i asked for career advice when i decided to get a real job 🙏

There was just another earthquake

She said into the void

Don’t worry yall, the quantum computers are all ok, i know you were worried.

What is the name for the hobby of doing deep dives into very strange topics on Wikipedia

Back like we never left 🔥

Quantum Crosstalk, episode 2!

I think I just had my midlife crisis because an actual thought that just popped into my head was “I should start a podcast”

I assume this is true for other fields too, but why are there so many goddamn people in tech that don’t actually want to teach you anything, they just want you to think they sound smart?

You can learn about our new work on YouTube in a Qiskit Paper Review youtube.com/watch?v=N4wzAh… with me and my IBM Research colleagues Andrew Cross, Maika Takita and Olivia Lanes, where we talk about our magic state preparation experiment, and about @IBM QEC research more broadly.

Once in 8th grade all my friends auditioned for this after school choir group that was training for a competition to be held at 6 Flags and I felt really left out (plus I also wanted to go to 6 Flags) so I just started going to choir practice and pretended to sing for months

I don’t know who needs to hear this but you are not a polymath

A little Qiskit behind the scenes

I’m neither an AI doomer nor an AI boomer, but I notice that the doomers have all sorts of thoughtful arguments & earnest vibes while the boomers are like, “haha you can’t stop technology, and AI will just be good, don’t worry”

What is going on with The Boeing Company is just a microcosm of what it looks like when you continue to choose profit over public safety. Apply it to anything; AI, healthcare, you name it. Watch what happens.

“A single qubit can *theoretically hold more data than the largest supercomputer.”

Ok but… no?

There are literally experts whose job it is to explain this stuff FOR FREE.

I am but a machine that takes in cheese and outputs quantum physics

oh you think calculus is just cute math. calculus was invented by physicists to sell you more physics. wake up sheeple
