I have just signed up for #SC25. Looking forward to visiting St. Louis and the scientific program, but also talking #HPC and especially #quantumcomputing with many of the world leading manufacturers.

05.10.2025 08:43 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I like your illustrations as it illustrates the AE conceptually. For me the difference seems to be mostly about whether you want to emphasize the conceptual or the actual - basically the "what" and the "how". The NN illustrations put emphasis on how you can do it practically

While this has been done before the size and scale of experiments are beyond previous work and some of the strategies we discuss have not been used in this context before

The call is now live. Please see this thread for further information:

Two points:
1) Of course QC is not anywhere near solving real problems more (economically) efficiently than classical compute, but useful results may be obtained
2) We are currently looking for beta-users for our API - at the cost of providing us feedback. Shoot me a message if you are interested
Not completely personal post, but yet somehow anyways (since I love #quantum, #compchem and #quantumcomputing):
We (i.e. the company I work for: Kvantify) show in an upcoming webinar hosted by IQM how quantum computers are easily accessible for chemical calculations: meetiqm.zoom.us/webinar/regi...
Congrats on the grant. Hope you will get good candidates to drive that project

Gave a talk in Copenhagen yesterday at a small scientific conference on quantum computing with great attendees. It was an interesting experience after so many years out of touch with "my field". Hope to deepen the interaction in the future.
Below is the part of the presentation I am most proud of:
I guess you could escape earths gravitational field running *that fast* :D

I plead guilty!
After a very long time it is finally peer reviewed and out:
pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10....
The preprint (arxiv.org/abs/2408.11091) is from last August and (v1) not that different from the published version. For some reason I always get content-fatigue when it comes to the final touches.

How do you even short stocks. There are plenty that I would have shorted recently (among others the quantum companies in the beginning of this year)
01.03.2025 05:58 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Politics is a strange thing - and I feel I am missing a basic nugget of education here. Why is it that on a personal level it mostly does not matter where people come from and we get along just fine - but as soon as we start building and thinking in groups (tribes, countries etc) it turns to π©

Europe should get their act together and invest in such individuals.
The question is: why do we as a society allow for a group of hyper-wealthy people to form in the first place.
Don't get me wrong - I have nothing against people becoming wealthy, but there should be limits. "Any system without negative feedback will overshoot" (think this is from Konrad Lorenz)
Talking about Ioannidis - does anyone know if there is a site or paper checking his claims made during the pandemic? My mother in law keeps telling me how right he was about everything right from the start - and I know too few details about all of that to come back with a qualified answer

Anyways - their money-givers seem legit open philanthropy etc but I am still sceptical
What is this institute of replication? Asking since it has an "interesting" angle here - which I would interpret as: the accounts we tried to flee from by moving to mastodon and bluesky are in close pursuit, still trying to change the discourse.

For me, this would solve the very practical problem of my standard feed being cluttered with @arxiv-quant-ph.bsky.social posts (which I like to follow as well)
@bsky.app - Feature suggestion: Custom sorting of content into different feeds would be nice and in a way a obvious way to prioritize content - as an alternative to the opaque algorithms used by twitter (which some call X), fb etc
