I don't want hardware designed by people who can't manage to learn a language.

Things that work on simple models motivate work on more complex models. He STARTS OUT by saying N=4 SYM is a toy model. The klein-gordon equation is unphysical but motivated a lot of good physics.

Completely different thing. Garrett Lisi threw us some weird looking thing that when you turn it to the left and spin it 3 times and do a backflip looks like an electron... and if you turn it up and around and up town it looks like a quark.

This isn't my field (a.k.a. I'm talking out of my ass), but I can give it my best shot. Usually with QFT you start with locality and unitarity as a sort of starting point. You might hope that you could come up with something much

Why do designers pull numbers out of their ass to make a concept sound more appealing? "Dual quad core processor!" yeah, well my concept has dual octocore processors and my concept will be liquid cooled! I mean phase change cooled

Cool. So how do I accelerate into this "bubble"

I was hoping for some sort of nice link between the fields... like doing quantum mechanics with game theory or something like that. This appears to be playing a game with a quantum channel. Cool, but not that cool.

Relativistic quantum mechanics typically isn't covered during undergrad. Maybe touched on briefly.

"I might make myself look a bit messy by releasing this. I also imagine that some other people might have to put in some amount of work (much less than the work I put into writing this in the first place) to get this to work, so I'

this is all very standard stuff for a physicist. Any first or second year grad student should have an easy time digesting this.

Can people really not separate out a factor of 2? There's weirdness in every language. If I started SUDDENLY speaking English with a more uhh... orthogonal grammar, people would maybe get what I was thinking, but also deem me a self-ri

After conferring with some fellow mathematicians, nobody had heard of the "tau movement", and nobody cares. Tau is for people who want to feel like they're taking stances on things that matter in math without actually putting

Nah. We do it because it's cool. Those things are side effects.

Quantum annealing is a real thing. Probably could make for some pretty fast optimization. What's the problem?

I see a benchmarking suite. How does the codegen compare to MLTon, SML/NJ, dare I say o'caml?
