Hi! I've been creating dance parties in my local town, and wanted a way to turn the music into lighting in a way that left me hands fee to enjoy the partyIt's open source, and as well as lighting also does VJ (select videos from a folder and apply effects based on the music)I'd love to see it get used more, happy to help you get it working

Re:Arrow of time and its reversal on IBM quantum computer (2018) on Wednesday March 13, 2019 @11:23AM (#19379574)
Here's my attempt at distilling it:

"Normally in a quantum computer, if we apply measurement function F to input x so y=F(x), it's impossible to reverse F and turn y into x. However, if we constrain y, we can make a special function G_Y such that x=G_Y(y)"

Whilst I don't have time to really dive through all the sections, this seems weirdly click-baity and IBM-promoting for an academic article.

The word IBM feels conspicuous.

Nice refreshing list :)

I didn't think "Attention > Convolution" was a prevalent myth, given how integral convolutions are to SOTA image classifiers and GANs (if anything, I believe attention is unde-utilised here and due to grow in usage a lot)

A couple of months ago I quit the tech startup I founded to focus full time on research. So far, I'm hugely enjoying it and really glad I made the (scary) jump.
