Weird. According to google which is always right there should be an option in classic too

In his latest work my student @evanhockings.bsky.social shows you can use ACES noise characterisation to train a decoder and improve noise suppression in the surface code even for very large codes.

Why characterise noise in syndrome extraction circuits? One reason: directly improving quantum error correction!

In simulations of the surface code, we find that noise-aware decoding—calibrating the decoder with noise estimates—improves the code's error suppression factor.

Large scale characterisation of errors in quantum computers. Very excited to see @evanhockings.bsky.social first paper out just days before he submits his thesis.

ArXiv quant-ph needs to be split up! Paul Ginsparg lists Daniel Gottesman's proposed subcategories at his @aspenphysics.bsky.social talk. He is looking for feedback: please reply, dm, or email.

INTRODUCTION

Modern-Day Oracles or Bullshit Machines?

Jevin West (@jevinwest.bsky.social) and I have spent the last eight months developing the course on large language models (LLMs) that we think every college freshman needs to take.

Roadtrip! Heading from @equscoe.bsky.social EQUS workshop in Noosa to the @psiquantum.bsky.social Brisbane office opening, with Tom Stace and Andrew Doherty. In Gerard Milburn’s car! Going to be a very #quantum drive

Repost this if you’re old enough to remember when they tried to convince us that “global warming stopped in 2008” (or whenever).
