Possibly the most frightening talent of the brown bear is an uncanny ability to blend seamlessly into the environment in an almost chameleon-like manner, allowing them to easily surprise their unsuspecting prey.

In case people haven't seen this yet, there's an "Academics on Mastodon" list on GitHub here: https://nathanlesage.github.io/academics-on-mastodon/
#Academia #Mastodon #Tips

I'm now aware of 4 tools that can help you find people on Mastodon, particularly people you followed on Twitter. Are there any others?
• Social Search: https://search.noc.social
• Twitodon: https://twitodon.com
• Debirdify: https://pruvisto.org/debirdify/
• Fedifinder: http://fedifinder.glitch.me

In Episode 3, we talked to Dr Lídia del Rio (@azul) about #QuantumInformation and what it took to co-found the community-driven scientific journal "Quantum".

Take a listen to the episode if you'd like to know more!

In Episode 2, we talked to Dr Philippe Faist (@phfaist) about #errorcorrection and #complexity.

How can we make the most of noisy, current-generation quantum computers, and just what is the Error Correction Zoo? Take a listen to find out!

Posts on here don't go viral, they go fungal, because the Fediverse is like the mycelium of mushrooms.

It's a shame that so many people are joining mastodon[.]social and having a bad experience. Unless you enjoy consuming the internet from a fire hose, you're gonna have a bad time. Moderation there is likely not going to align with your needs.
I am fortunate to have been following @nova on Twitter and saw her posting about #hachyderm, such that I was able to migrate to hachyderm.io after only 12 days of joining the fediverse. Even though it's grown to >20k users, the local feed is still readable!

Trying this Mastodon thing by promoting a new preprint from the group on qubit cloaking. Check it out and let me know how it works for you in the lab! https://arxiv.org/abs/2211.05758

People don't realize that Reddit *used* to be open source. https://github.com/reddit-archive/reddit

As promised, the top three papers I found interesting this week:

Real-time quantum error correction beyond break-even (from @Yale_QI researchers)
https://arxiv.org/abs/2211.09116

Efficient Unitary Designs with a System-Size Independent Number of Non-Clifford Gates (@jenseisert and his colleagues)

https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00220-022-04507-6

Cloaking a qubit in a cavity (Alexandre Blais @circuitQED and colleagues)
