Google Claims Latest Quantum Experiment Would Take Decades on Classical Computer https://thequantuminsider.com/?p=2356242 #Research #Google #quantum_advantage #random_circuit_sampling #Sycamore #quantumdaily Insider Brief Google scientists are reporting in a new study that it completed a computational task on a quantum computer that would take a classical supercomputer 47 years to complete. The task was a random circuit sampling calculation. The experiment was carried out in the latest version

Los Alisos Creek in the Los Fresnos nature preserve in Sonora, Mexico, north of Cananea, where we were surveying for beavers last week. There are some fabulous sycamores (tree on right; the other is an ash tree) in that creek, but no beavers ☹️

This is a 10-vertical-image pano stitched in Lightroom. I wish I could upload a higher resolution shot, but the original is 700MB, so 🤷‍♂️

I'd like to come back dawn/dusk for a re-do in better light.

Google Quantum AI Researchers Say Error-Correction Milestone Is An Important Step Toward Practical Quantum Computing https://thequantuminsider.com/?p=2350839 #Quantum_Computing_Business #Research #error_correction #google_ai #Google_Quantum_AI_Team #Hartmut_Neven #Julian_Kelly #logical_qubits #Sundar_Pichai #Sycamore #VP_of_Engineering #quantumdaily A team of Google Quantum AI researchers say they notched another milestone in error-correction work, an advance they hope will be another important

Beautiful walk again along a Hadrian’s Wall taking in the famous Sycamore Gap, Steel Rigg, and Milecastle 32.

My favourite way to speak artistically is through wood. My focus recently has been #illustration - specifically my #tarot decks - but wood is my heart’s best canvas. I prefer #reclaimed wood, often rescuing pieces from being firewood. I paint & draw on pieces, but #pyrography is my favourite. All #freehand. Shown here are #chestnut and #yew I saved with permission from a log pile, and some #sycamore and #ash I got from a furniture makers offcuts.

Full moon rising, sycamore fruit dangling. #iowa #FullMoon #Sycamore

#Question for my #rust friends:

How do you access document object model when working with #frameworks like #yew or #Sycamore.
Or if you have to write #js how simple is inter op.

The #Oak is called the #King of trees,
The #Aspen quivers in the breeze,

The #Poplar grows up straight and tall,
The #Peach tree spreads along the wall,

The #Sycamore gives pleasant #Shade,
The #Willow droops in watery Glade,

The #Fir tree useful #Timber gives,
The #Beech amid the #Forest lives.

Traversable #wormhole protocol?

“I think it is true that gravity in our universe is emergent from some quantum [bits] in the same way that this little baby one-dimensional wormhole is emergent” from the Sycamore chip, [Daniel] Jafferis said. “Of course we don’t know that for sure. We’re trying to understand it.”

Sycamore and river birch illuminated by the last rays of the sun. #sunset #iowa #sycamore #RiverBirch

The land is my love. I took a hike yesterday to meet them where the Sycamore leaves of Fall exist with the Spring sprouting of ferns in the same time and space with the prickly pear cactus, the wild lilac and Mojave yucca. The #Sycamore bark is warm and smooth, the live #Oak rough and callous. I smell the perfume of White #Sage and Laurel #Sumach. I ppl lace my hand on the rounded granite, listen to the dry winds rustle the leaves as it cools my skin, the sound akin to sand scraping on the bottom of a mountain stream and the crumpling of a wedding gown.

oooh, and in Africa and the Middle East, Sycamore refers to Ficus sycomorus, which isn't even the same family.

This is why I like using the Latin names for plants - it's how you can be sure if you are talking about the same plants, regardless of where you are in the world.

"That #quantum computer, named #Sycamore, 'performed the target computation in 200 seconds, and from measurements in our experiment we determined that it would take the world’s fastest supercomputer 10,000 years to produce a similar output,'"
