Coming back from the dead is arguably one of if not the very best masculine experiences for confidence
I have spoken to some very high level operators who have been destroyed and zero'd out in their mid thirties by bankruptcy, divorce getting ugly and a multitude of other things and those individuals who eat those shots and came back to the arena swinging and rebuilt themselves from basically nothing; everyone of those motherfuckers has that untouchable it factor swagger and its so potent
Those moments where you're down and out, took a risk which was 95% of NW; got clipped and now you barely have money for rent without hopping on uber for 30 hours a week for the next 4 weeks, or maybe you even go into heavy debt and get clipped
Those are the moments that forge the spirit and make the man in complete totality, if a man can connect to his vision for himself and revive from those angles from the dead he will know a strength and a power like no other
Fear is such a neurotic mistress, its so easy to be consumed by fear when everything is going perfectly and it can paralyse you even when things are great, but then once you get destroyed into the dirt and all your nightmares are at the door, all of them have transformed and become real now it is strangely at this very point when they have no power over you, the point where you're in the most danger you care the very least as you have gained strength from engaging and welcoming your shadows, once you welcome something and you are truly not bothered by it; you swallow its soul and it animates you into correct posture and life force and you can utilise that as an additional limb of some sort
It's never getting decimated that really deconstructs men, you will always live in a glass house afraid of the wind when you have never realised you can survive the coldest nights and its genuinely that realisation that is the foundation of becoming and growing beyond who you actually are
Unless you fail truly at some point, you will never develop the courage to be who you truly could be, as the protection of your little ego will prevent you from truly taking on the almighty behemoth challenges
Failing brutally atleast once destroys your ego and liberates you, it almost acts as an additional health bar
Always the dudes who have done the least who are the most stressed and the men who are the most calm who have been in the war the longest
Otherwise you will live to protect your illusions forever
Interesting consideration around the tiers of FTQC. Presumably the usage of this hardware will be similar to the token model of GPUs where consumers pay for the amount they use.
HPC data center deployments are probably also analogous to quantum data centers (“QDC”). The application layer will drive demand for QDC deployments, and it’s hard to imagine that quantum apps won’t be extremely useful.
On the convergence of cloud and HPC, perhaps there will be a similar trend in quantum infrastructure eventually where QPU access is just distributed through webapps / platforms?
Scientists are losing their minds over this paper.
They proved every mitochondria in your body is a tiny quantum device running at 71 THz.
And it responds to light.
Researchers detected a mysterious 71.0-terahertz vibration signal. this frequency is only present in healthy, living cells and tissues.
exact moment the cell dies or the mitochondrial structures are broken apart, the signal vanishes completely.
How does this happen?
Classical physics has always struggled to explain the high energy-efficiency of life.
So the team built a quantum model of light-matter coupling and discovered something called a "mito-polariton".
It is a literal quantum superposition state that forms when light couples with lipid ch2 bonds inside functional mitochondria.
This quantum resonance splits the intrinsic vibration mode into two levels, creating that bizarre 71 thz frequency that you only see in living things.
Why does this matter?
Because this quantum state actually acts as a highly efficient channel to modulate atp production in living cells.
our bodies literally use quantum mechanics to generate the energy that keeps us alive.
@nguyenquantum In your opinion what class(es) of problem that currently inhibit scaling of logical qubits (e.g. a functional QC) can have this type of AI applied to them to shorten the timeline?
One thing I’ve learned is that there is basically no risk in sharing your startup idea with others if it has a real moat.
It is very, very unlikely that someone is willing to drop everything on the spot to spend five years stealing it.
Very happy to announce that our team @GoogleDeepmind has pushed the boundaries of generative biology, achieving the successful synthesis of AI-designed proteins that are both functional and watermarked.
This proof-of-concept watermarking of the building blocks of life is enabled by SynthID Bio, our new protein watermarking method. It is designed to safeguard the new era of AI-powered generative biology and strengthen global biosecurity.

Enough is enough.
For years, people have been expected to put up with Avanti’s cancellations, delays, overcrowding, and a service that has failed them time and time again.
So my Labour government is bringing Avanti West Coast into public ownership at the earliest opportunity in March next year.
That means passengers, not shareholders, will come first.
More investment, fewer delays, and a renewed focus on getting the basics right.
We're putting essential services back in public hands and building a railway that actually works for the people who use it.
With our existing deployments in Guatemala, Honduras and Jamaica, and the new ones that are currently being developed for the Dominican Republic and Colombia, we'll soon have tackled most of the key plastic inflow points to the Caribbean.
Imagine being given somewhere around 80 years on a planet floating through an incomprehensibly enormous universe, surrounded by billions of people you will never meet, mysteries you will never solve, places you will never see, and more knowledge than you could absorb in a thousand lifetimes...
and spending the whole damn thing worrying about money, arguing with strangers, impressing people you don't even like, and doing something you hate five days a week because somebody convinced you that was life.
I don't know, man.
I think we may have gotten a few things terribly wrong.
One of the most satisfying parts of the phase we’re now in at @TheOceanCleanup is that we’re actually starting to change the lives of the people who depend on the ocean being clean.
