if you're a comp-sci guy and just interested in understanding what it's all about Aaronson will be your favorite author: https://www.scottaaronson.com/barbados-2016.pdf

waitttt so you're shorting companies based purely on 'diversity'? and you claim it's worked..?

its compartmentalized - even within the q team although qiskit is open source so literally anyone can look at the GitHub and get a pretty good idea of what's going on

Apple, Spotify, etc. (or a third-party) need to agree on a standard format for a users music library so that we can switch between UIs more easily - separate the UI from the actual music provider, allow more niche UIs Obviously nobody will

this is nice - good luck to you and yours - definitely going to give it a listen

Is she getting 'interference' and 'de-coherence' mixed up..?

ooookay a more recent demonstration: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1804.03719.pdf you said the number 15 was never factored on a quantum computer - this is false. You can run as many gates as you want - go ahead and run 4608 g

'non-programmable'... um what?

Error detection vs. error correction are very different things. It's true that many physical qubits (and a proper error correction scheme) are required to implement a single logical qubit. But once a valid design for a single logical q

thought you were going to tie it back into transistors for a second there... difference amplifiers are, after all, one of the simplest circuits out there. Not so sure about similarity amplifiers

Also, say I implement the visitor pattern in some language on a classical machine - aren't there branch instructions being used under the covers anyway ? (the code will probably be more optimized / easier to optimize for the co

thanks for tying it back into quantum - also for the clarification that the way you write them doesn't matter - whether that be in terms of if/else, switch statements or actual CPU-level branch instructions.

this is interesting - thanks for your response. I'm having a hard time understanding the program you supplied though, the subsequent description did not really help (probs more my fault than your own). I certainly understand the visito
