I know that I know nothing.

Just attended my first quantum computing lecture and honestly, I’ve never enjoyed learning more than this.
I never speak in class, but I asked questions today lmao

Had my first @Qiskit PR merged into main. I’ll be waiting by the phone for my Turing Award.

I can’t stress this enough: MIT, Yale, and Stanford’s open courses are pivotal in the internet age. People who couldn’t get into these prestigious universities still have the opportunity to learn from world-class professors. This is what the internet was built for—open knowledge with no barriers. Even without videos, the syllabi and class schedules are there for anyone willing to follow.

Just wanted to say thank you.

We are at the ENIAC stage of quantum computing. I was wondering today what it would even mean for a quantum computer to have a high-level programming language. What would the abstraction even be? I thought I could just Google it, but it seems like people are still trying to figure out what a higher-level understanding might look like.

There is QIR, which I haven’t really worked with much. It’s part of the LLVM family, but I don’t really understand how it lowers the IR, or even to what. It’s described as hybrid, so it seems to be both classical and quantum.

I digress. There seems to be a real research opportunity in advancing quantum programming languages.

Scientists identified ribose (used in RNA) and – for the first time in any extraterrestrial sample – glucose, a major energy source for life. These sugars join nucleobases and phosphates previously found, demonstrating the full suite of RNA building blocks were present on the ancient asteroid.

“...quantum phenomena do not occur in a Hilbert space, they occur in a laboratory. ” – Asher Peres

I’m so confused that I don’t know whether to take this as an insult or a compliment toward quantum mechanics.
