In the last post of a 3-part series, Dominik Hangleiter highlights the importance of efficient verification of quantum advantage, and assesses the prospects for achieving it soon.

In part 2 or a 3-part series, Dominik Hangleiter continues his thoughtful assessment of the evidence for quantum advantage in random-circuit-sampling experiments.

Last year, I became interested in the question what happens if we impose computational efficiency onto information theory. In our latest paper, we analyze how this changes the amount of information that can be transmitted over a channel -- spoiler alert: a lot! scirate.com/arxiv/2601.1...
100% agree. Especially since we have author IDs that are matched to the papers when they are claimed!

Dominik Hangleiter weighs in with an informative post about a much debated question: Has quantum advantage been achieved? This is the first post in a three-part series.

Herzlichen Glückwunsch!
The largest fundamental science agency in Europe will save €1.4 million annually by breaking free from Clavariate Analytics' huge databases of references and citations.
"We have worked for free to lock ourselves collectively into a paid system", one head of the CNRS explains - but no more! 🎉
This comment has a strong guns-don't-kill-people vibe.

Congratulations!
I don't know, but your question made me think of this Goethe quote:
"Alles Gescheite ist schon gedacht worden, man muss nur versuchen, es noch einmal zu denken." - "Everything sensible has already been thought of; one just has to try to think it again."
Are new ideas better than old ones?
Isn't the point of the figure more that there is no guarantee that post quantum protocols cannot be broken by either algorithmic discoveries or progress in hardware development?
Perhaps the inclination of the blue line segments is exaggerated, but the important point is that they are not horizontal.
Sounds like the papers are writing themselves on time then!
🥳I am very happy to have been awarded an ERC Starting Grant that I will use to start my own group and explore the large-scale entanglement properties of complex quantum systems.
This would not have been possible without my fantastic collaborators and supervisors. A big "thank you" to all of you! 🙏

I did not expect to learn the difference between eudaimonia and eudaemonia, when I decided to participate in the www.avibagla.com/blueskydicti... challenge today 😅

I wrote about automation and the meaning of life, as a guest post on Scott Aaronson's Shtetl-Optimized. (1/5)

Looks like a rather deceptive advance to me.

Ich bin auch dafür Veröffentlichungen wieder auf Deutsch zu schreiben 🤓
(I'm also in favor of going back to German for writing papers 🤓)
Are you a student or early-career researcher in quantum computing or quantum information? Then the following is for you.

Correct!
But are there worse things to do there other than prepare slides? 🏖️
If there are currently 19856025 bitcoin and around 8.2 billion people in the world, would that imply that around 0,00242 ₿ is a fair amount of bitcoin?
If it's the latter, one of the worst things you can do is tell some people about the results and then ask them not to share them on social media. Unless, of course, your reason for doing so is to generate hype for results that don't actually exist yet, and you don't want anyone else to work on them?
