💔 Shervin Hajipour wrote ‘Baraye’, one of the most beautiful songs ever written. The regime has thrown him in jail.

To Canadian citizens and permanent residents, If you’re in 🇨🇦 and thinking about visiting Lebanon— don’t. If you are in Lebanon, come back home. If tensions escalate, the situation on the ground may not allow us to help you and you won’t be able to leave. Plan accordingly.

I fully agree with Mario Nawfal. Boeing might have tried but certainly failed in taking their contract seriously. NASA should NOT risk astronauts’ lives to bail out Boeing. Quality of built between SpaceX Dragon and The Boeing Company Starliner are not comparable. Dragon is a mature and

Sir Roger Penrose is in my opinion the greatest mathematical physicist alive. His contribution and geometric understanding of physics and cosmology is unparalleled, even surpassing that of Einstein and his generation. He is also one of the most communicators of all times Happy

A major step in error correction Google Quantum AI : Pushing the surface code to the next level Below threshold: Distance-7 logical qubit, 0.0014 error per cycle, >2x better than physical qubits. arxiv.org/abs/2408.13687

Experimental measurement and a physical interpretation of quantum shadow enumerators scirate.com/arxiv/2408.169… This work, bringing together ideas of #quantumerrorcorrection and #quantumsystemsidentification, settles questions on shadow enumerators and shows data from experiments.

23 years after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, we remember. We remember the nearly 3,000 people killed, including 24 Canadians, and the families who still grieve. And we honour the bravery of the first responders and ordinary heroes who —

Great reading, very well-written. Preprint PDF available: math.umd.edu/~wmg/gstom.pdf Publisher: bookstore.ams.org/gsm-227/

For academics, joining industry is an attractive proposition for many reasons: great colleagues, opportunities for massive impact, and excellent compensation. But it's important to note: academics can not expect to more or less carry on being an academic -though many try 1/n

Domain wall color code We introduce the domain wall color code, a new variant of the quantum error-correcting color code that exhibits exceptionally high code-capacity error thresholds for qubits subject to biased noise. journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/1…

Two years ago today, Mahsa Amini’s life was taken at the hands of the Iranian regime. Canada continues to stand with the brave women & girls of Iran in their fight for freedom. Women’s rights are human rights. Woman. Life. Freedom زن زندگی آزادی

For a more complete treatise on the subject, do acquire 'Geometric Quantization' by Woodhouse. It's a fairly rare book, but it is worth your time to look for it.
