never expected a computational complexity sticker to be so controversial
either I have haters, or @henryyuen.bsky.social does

Gave some of these stickers I made to John Wright and the first thing he said was
“Why did you make this?”
lmao

Hanging out at the Georgetown steam plant science fair this weekend with my project about Hilbert’s Grand Hotel.
Come through if you’re in Seattle!

I made a zine about quantum gates and distributed it at @unitary.foundation's unitaryCON this two weeks ago.
check it out :) and lemme know what you think

just noticed I've given 256 stars on github. I guess no more. Sorry folks.

wow the dopamine hit from seeing my name pop up in someones talk (even if just for a diagram) is huge

yup! 10-4:30 all day.
it's broken into 3 sections so if you can't make everything hopefully you can make a theme you enjoy most :)

WERQSHOP is a wrap! Glad to have had the opportunity to chair the event but damn that was a jump into the deep end in terms of event organizing.
Thanks to all who helped organize and to those who came :))) <3

Had a lot of fun presenting at SciPy today about noise in quantum computers. High-level talk about noise, and how python plays a role in speedy development. Slides are available here nates.place/static/scipy..., but this is my favorite one.

I did my best to draw the true data which looks like this.
it's surprising to me that there isn't an easier way to get the full download history of your package than to use google bigquery
it's easy, but would've thought PyPI would have this all open somehow

mitiq hit 250k downloads! Even with all the hype around error correction it seems any other way to mitigate the impact of noise is still important for the time being.
The next release (0.46.0) will come out soon! Keep your 👀 peeled.

Nice talk yesterday from Mariia Mykhailova (recently moved to @psiquantum.bsky.social) on software best-practices in quantum to kick off the UW REU seminar.
I liked Maria’s point that there is an elevated need to understand runtime ahead of running programs because feedback loops are so long

@craiggidney.bsky.social is it possible to make time go slower in the parametrized rotations?
