If we could not find room for it, time to digest it, or a reason to run it during the past week, we have collected it here. Not a recap for the week, but a cleanup of pieces we received and just could not get to.
Because Quantum is Coming. Qubit

RMACC’s 10th High Performance Computing Symposium to Be Held Free Online | Links to the Symposium registration, its schedule, and how to enter the poster competition can be found at www.rmacc.org/hpcsymposium. The Keynote speakers are Dr. Nick Bronn, a Research Staff Member in IBM’s Experimental Quantum Computing group, and Dr. Jason Dexter, a working group coordinator for the groundbreaking black hole imaging studies published by Event Horizon Telescope. Dr. Bronn serves at IBM’s TJ Watson Research Center in Yorktown Heights, NY. He has been responsible for qubit (quantum bits) device design, packaging, and cryogenic measurement, working towards scaling up larger numbers of qubits on a device and integration with novel implementations of microwave and cryogenic hardware. He will speak on the topic, “Benchmarking and Enabling Noisy Near-term Quantum Hardware.” Source: Rocky Mountain Advanced Computing Consortium.

Quantum supremacy is here — so what? Given the idea central to quantum computing is that bits can be in multiple states at the same time, perhaps it’s no surprise that Google’s quantum supremacy claims are disputed – as is the importance of the milestone itself.

Will Quantum Computing Really Change The World? Facts And Myths | In recent years, some big tech companies like IBM, Microsoft, Intel, or Google have been working in relative silence on something that sounds great: quantum computing. The main problem with this is that it is difficult to know what exactly it is and what it can be useful for. There are some questions that can be easily solved. For example, quantum computing is not going to help you have more FPS on your graphics card at the moment. Nor will it be as easy as changing the CPU of your computer for a quantum to make it ‘hyperfast’. Quantum computing is fundamentally different from the computing we are used to, but how?
