Diversity means dysfunction and defeat.

Diversity kills culture.

Lilou&John thread? I hadn't found one. Is that cute couple a part of our Abreaction? Gotta love Stevens' music review. Best way to describe the duo? Swedish. XD

I love to hear about triumphs such as these in our darkly atomized, alienating, and diversity democratic republic times we live in. Dating sites work, people! At least with the caveat, when they do, but then again that's called being a participant along with somebody else's experiences, and sometimes you never know if you're really related afterall. ; )

I just can't not love how she makes it seem like he was the one in need of convincing. If she'd been a Siren he'd have never survived and maybe a part of him really hasn't afterall.

Gothenburg was a wedding song so deep and emotional that the rebel farmer Edward Nordén (think Lysander Spooner in a combined harvester) once posted a video of him blasting it from his tractor into the Nordic summer night. It was also a commemorative track of the city where Lilou first met John, after a few first nudges on a dating site.

Something to offend everyone. Diversity is suicide.

Diversity causes civilizational erasure.

Cybersecurity has degenerated from a niche arm of IT to the new "learn to code!" attracting the bird brained - like ants to a neglected pile of sugar in the pantry. Just buy an on-line course on IP address management tools that you'll never use in the field and you'll get a comfy office job making six figures!

The absolute garbage that the dimwitted are being forced through now that we've shipped away all of our nation's jobs for the mentally disabled to Guadeloupe. What's a 103 IQ white boy from South Carolina to do?

New paper shows coherence improvements of superconducting 2-D transmon qubits of up to 1.68 milliseconds via changes in the substrate to that of silicon; applicable to current architectures and gate schemes.

"Materials improvements are a powerful approach to reducing loss and decoherence in superconducting qubits because
such improvements can be readily translated to large scale processors. Recent work improved transmon coherence by
utilizing tantalum (Ta) as a base layer and sapphire as a substrate [1]. The losses in these devices are dominated by
two-level systems (TLSs) with comparable contributions from both the surface and bulk dielectrics [2], indicating that
both must be tackled to achieve major improvements in the state of the art. Here we show that replacing the substrate
with high-resistivity silicon (Si) dramatically decreases the bulk substrate loss, enabling 2D transmons with time-averaged
quality factors (𝑄) exceeding 1.5 × 107, reaching a maximum 𝑄 of 2.5 × 107, corresponding to a lifetime (𝑇1) of up to
1.68 ms. This low loss allows us to observe decoherence effects related to the Josephson junction, and we use improved,
low-contamination junction deposition to achieve Hahn echo coherence times (𝑇2E) exceeding 𝑇1. We achieve these material
improvements without any modifications to the qubit architecture, allowing us to readily incorporate standard quantum
control gates. We demonstrate single qubit gates with 99.994% fidelity. The Ta-on-Si platform comprises a simple
material stack that can potentially be fabricated at wafer scale, and therefore can be readily translated to large-scale
quantum processors."

Curious if this can scale to multi-qubit CNOT operations in the future. It would make Steane Codes applicable for toy programs.
