Anyone know who is running this?

First time I'm seeing arxiv.wiki (it's now (?) automatically linked on scirate. Looks like a great initiative, right up my alley!
asking in light of recent neutral atom computing platform news (Oratomic & Google)

Genuine question as I am not up to date:
were there major innovations in neutral atom computing that circumvent the problem of having to physically shuttle atoms, leading to unfortunate (logical) clock rates?
you know how they say, sometimes 115 quantikz circuit diagrams say more than a thousand words..
new preprint "parameter-optimal unitary synthesis with flag decompositions" w/ @dwierichs.bsky.social Guillermo and Nathan

My impression is that hope is not very vague once you go beyond static things like ground states, at least I dont see how you'd do accurate dynamic simulations at scale
Here is a sober perspective from arguably one of the top classical simulation groups

Not saying it's not risky but the clichΓ© that there are no applications beyond Shor is a bit outdated imo, in case that is what you are alluding to
I'm asking because my impression is that if you look past LinkedIn and hype press releases there are very serious people doing very serious analyses of feasible applications, possible revenue streams and their cost.
What makes you say there is no compelling business case?
looks great, thanks!
typos ftw: I'd much rather read your raw scribblings than your polished and soulless AI-generated deliberations
@mozilla.org Firefox lowkey the best browser for these two features alone:
- cmd+tab cycles through tabs in recently used order
- you can go back and forth between hyperlinks _within_ a pdf using the back and forward buttons
What do you use to generate these neat surface code illustrations? I recently found a stackexchange thread where you replied saying you're writing svgs from scratch, is that still the case π ?
thanks for sharing!
Thinking about a career in #quantumcomputing but don't have a #quantum #physics degree? π€ You might be surprised!

This perspective paper from 2024 uses it in the latter sense you describe (afai can tell), which also makes most sense for the name imo. I agree that the former is just FTQC.

Damn, I would have sounded so much smarter if I said something along the lines of: "what a nice coincidence that we have a golden euro-cad conversion rate." Chance missed π₯²
That's 13-15 qubits, nothing quantum Shannon decomposition can't handle! So I'm not too worried about that :) or am I missing something crucial here?
Oh nice! Wasn't aware, thanks!
Another way to view it: Great! Now we have a very good initial state in form of that MPS to run quantum algorithms on π
the comment section is wild
That's the most positive blog I've read from Scott Aaronson scottaaronson.blog?p=9425
PSA: papers from early 2023 are three years old now.
I can't stop laughing at this particular one π
lol
I will not tire of whining about overleaf and quantikz speeds
I didnt know this existed, thank you so much! Looks very solid, in particular, the tequila drawer looks amazing! Any connection to github.com/tequilahub/t... ot coincidence?
All I want for christmas is a (better) quantikz equivalent for @typst.app (and arxiv+journal support)
Using overleaf.com after typst.app just feels like going around in a horse-drawn carriage in 2025 - gets you from A to B, and is kinda cool and vintage, but just extremely slow and cumbersome.
complete darkness at 5pm is just not something I will ever get used to π₯²
