Starting quantum computing is like learning a new dimension of thought. Here's your toolkit to dive in with confidence.
Save this, share it with a quantum-curious friend, and let's build the future one qubit at a time.

Starting a new chapter. Born in Oak Ridge, father worked in research in the 1960's @AEC. Felt I saw the world differently. Didnt understand till discovered chemistry. Joining NQCP as CSO. NQCP focuses on quantum, atomic first. Looking to accelerating, being bold, building from Denmark globally.

Wow. "the agency intends to wind down one of the sites for the celebrated Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO).... NSF had previously planned to upgrade LIGO’s facilities and the two sites are both needed to localize the celestial sources of the waves."
President Donald Trump today fleshed out his vision for a previously proposed 56% cut in the $9 billion budget of the National Science Foundation, and it’s not a pretty sight. scim.ag/3HhGa1D
Final NSF budget proposal jettisons one giant telescope amid savage agencywide cuts
Trump’s 57% proposed cut to agency would drop grant success rates to 7% and gut education and training

This is true, and also good news for hominins, since it means we get to do the fun part.
Idk if it stays true forever, but plan to enjoy it while it lasts.

something that’s not obvious — LLMs are asymmetrically good at critique vs authoring
an LLM might do a shit job of a first pass draft, but turn around and give a world class critique
a lot of people dismiss after they see a bad authoring job
