If youre not a woke communist you have nothing to fear they claimed

If youre not a woke communist you have nothing to fear they claimed Part of me feels bad not to have written for weeks about quantum error-correction or BQP or QMA or even the new Austin-based startup that launched a “quantum computing dating app” (which, before anyone asks, is 100% as gimmicky and pointless as it sounds).

We are destroying software

We are destroying software We are destroying software by no longer taking complexity into account when adding features or optimizing some dimension.

The duty of stating the obvious

The duty of stating the obvious Trump’s proposal for the US to “take over” Gaza and expel its inhabitants is, like nearly everything else Trump has said and done over the past two weeks and indeed the past decade, completely batshit insane. 2.
