Yeah, I think this is the goal - remember; there are some problems that only need to be solved correctly once! Imagine something like a millennium problem - you'd be willing to wait a pretty long time for a proof of the RH!

I can't believe anyone else remembers this game but my best friend in elementary school and I used to spend our entire sleepovers playing Oni. What a legend.

Looking at the datasheet, it looks like there's one qubit with quite a bit worse error/noise than the others - anyone know why this might be?

Somewhat relatedly, this reminds me of the instruction I learned about recently: the PEXT instruction. https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/documen...

Fun fact, I wrote the first version of this code as a Google Intern. Imagine my surprise when I saw that they're still using it, and it's been developed and fleshed out!

This is an interesting look at how transit is shifting around public Micromobility options like scooters and bike share. Notably, commute hours seem to be drifting away from bimodal morning-evening. A neat take!
