I guess back when I wrote it I didn't see the need given that single qubit gates along with CNOT are universal and they're implemented. I think airing on the side of 'as few features as is educational' was my mentality o

I wrote something similar a couple of years ago - https://github.com/adamisntdead/QuSimPy Happy to answer any questions people have, including on other simulation methods other than state vector!

I'm currently a mathematics undergraduate at Cambridge and there's quite a few students who live type notes in various different formats. I think that the majority of the learning curve comes when getting used to the format of wri

I'm a big fan of this video from Reducible on Huffman codes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3y0RsVCyrw , and from 3Blue1Brown on Hamming codes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8jsijhllIA

I'm surprised that something like point compression can even be patented, considering that it's relatively straightforward mathematically (all of the difficulty seems to lie in the number theory to compute a solution, which I assu

Because the pacemakers rotated, they weren't the same all of the way through.

That article had a really nice depth to it, answered all of my questions that I had yesterday when I first saw the project.

Well if you get assigned bad seats you might not come back, for this sort of thing I would say happy customers would lead back into more money

I have been thinking about this sort of thing quite a lot - while I do think it's wrong to split people up on a plane, it is quite an interesting concept. A similar but less malicious case would be one of organising the seating on a tr

Quantum computing won't require much extra power that python can't provide, the only heavy processing will be circuit generation which is (as far as we can see at the moment) fine to use python for. In the sort term though there&#

As someone who read this with an editor full of OpenCL kernels, I think apple must really have missed the point of these sort of frameworks - heterogeneous computing. If I wanted the best possible speed, latest features ect. I would write m

Love the idea - what API are you using for summarization?

I am always impressed by the amount of content posted about Quantum Computing on hn. As a subject I find really interesting, it's really encouraging to see other people with the same interest, even if it is just casual!

by adamisntdead 8y ago
Hello, author here - The choice to use rust mainly came from the fact I have more experience with it than with C++. Also, the compiler makes it really easy to write good code. This, along with really simple testing, benchmarking and the eas

I would also have to recommend "Quantum Mechanics, The Theoretical Minimum" by Leonard Susskind, if you wish to go a little bit further into general quantum mechanics
