heaven over our heads and under feet
Incantation for St. Shakyamuni

The Taoists say there is mystery at the end
But no pot of gold at the end of the rainbow
And the Hindus say there is a beyond the beyond
A place no finer than Caroliner in the morning
Buddhists say you will be born again
Christ says you must be born again

Cambridge physicist who studied with Paul Dirac named Freeman Dyson, described Paul Dirac's discoveries as "like exquisitely carved marble statues falling out of the sky, one after another". This quote highlights the elegance and beauty of Dirac's contributions to quantum mechanics.

Le mot français « dieu » vient du latin deus, lié aux mots dies (jour), et diluvium (ciel ouvert) ; il est apparenté au sanskrit div et diu (ciel, jour et luminosité).

Ive said this before. Unions have a moment in time to create parallel, Non Profit Trust or Associated Health Plans and
offer them to small to medium size businesses.

Unions can negotiate far better than SMBs or associations .

Imagine if millions got their healthcare from unions ?

Thoughts ?

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period.

I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt.

But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

We will review some basics of quantum circuits manipulations in Qiskit. We will explain the minimal formalism to discuss quantum errors, explaining the notion of quantum state fidelity. We will show how to estimate the fidelity of states produced by simple quantum circuits. #quantumcomputing

The reason I'm so positive about aspiring writers is that I believe that:

* Anyone who can string a sentence together can write a story, script or book.

* Anyone who puts enough time, effort, and workshopping into it can write a GOOD story, script, or book.

* Anything finished can be fixed.

Feels like I'm just posting to the void since I'm just getting started here, but why not. I write a weekly newsletter, and this week I write about how far away from reading and critical thinking we’ve come. It's lacking in our education, COVID learning loss, social media attention spans, all of it.
We need to get back to reading and critical thinking
Because 2024 feels different from 2016.
