This is HUGE.

The "Big Data" bottleneck in Quantum just vanished. 🧵

New research from @Caltech proves an exponential quantum advantage in processing massive classical data.

A small, polylogarithmic quantum computer can now handle large-scale classification and dimension reduction that would normally require exponentially larger classical systems.

CC: @haimengzhao This is the bridge to near-term utility. It proves we don't need massive, fault-tolerant machines to tackle the world's largest datasets, bringing practical, scalable quantum advantages to machine learning and data science much sooner than expected.

The use of Quantum Technology in modern warfare has profound implications.

Nation states, including adversaries to the US and NATO have been investing $ Billions to get a decisive edge in today's battlefield.

A thread....🧵

$IONQ $CCCX Quantum Technologies (QT) is a field that has very strong government interests, specifically in modern warfare.

Quantum-enabled war-fighting refers to QT military applications with several implications.

As 🇵🇱Poles, we have a difficult history when 🇩🇪Germany and 🇷🇺Russia forge alliances. Germany’s reluctance to cease buying Russian gas/oil endangers not just Poland but all of Central and Eastern Europe.

The Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact is just one example from recent history. (🧵) The Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact was a non-aggression pact between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union that enabled those two powers to partition Poland, and other CEE Countries between them.

I recently came upon a story about a company @AlchemySystem firing their entire QA Team in Ukraine without any warning or heads up.

To add insult to injury, this happened after Alchemy made a public statement in support of Ukraine.

Here is the story in a thread.🧵 Alex Zaichenko, Former Head of Quality Assurance at Alchemy says on LinkedIn that the company fired "the entire QA (UA) team just in a day, without any warning and notice period and even simple 'thank you for your service guys' on March 14th.

Just to set the record straight, long term i am bullish on crypto, however in the short to medium term, i am short crypto.

I still think #Bitcoin and crypto have yet to have their dot-com crash moment. Here's why:🧵 First, you need to look at one important aspect: the advent of #Bitcoin coincided with the beginning of Quantitative Easing, right after the Financial Crisis of 2008.

The Lwów School of Mathematics was a group of Polish mathematicians who worked in the interwar period.

The school was renowned for its productivity and extensive contributions.

WWII brought a tragic end to this centre of Polish excellence.

🧵 Herman Auerbach was a professor at Lwów University.

During the Second World War because of his Jewish descent he was imprisoned by the Germans in the Lwów ghetto.

In 1942 he was murdered at Bełżec extermination camp.
