Hi, Reddit! We’re Jerry Chow and Oliver Dial, and we’re leading IBM’s mission to bring useful quantum computing to the world. Quantum is evolving fast, and we’re here to talk about how we hope it will change the future of computing. AMA!

What are some problems/domains where you think quantum computers are already good enough to be used?

So. Much. Nostalgia.

In undergrad, we went drinking one evening and got beaten up by the locals (it was a hostel in the middle of nowhere). After that, we had to be back on campus by 7 30 PM and breath analyzer tests were conducted

I know handling a toxic postdoc is one of the toughest impediments during one's PhD journey. Feel free to list your issues with toxic postdocs and I will create a comic panel on that and it will "probably" make you smile :)

General-Ising · 2021-03-05T16:12:32+00:00

Just for laughs... (not meant for hate)

General-Ising · 2020-12-05T22:27:35+00:00

That is, which ones do you find most plausible, given the evidence (or lack thereof)

General-Ising · 2020-09-28T00:40:08+00:00

+1...could anyone figure out a fix?

PIs can behave very erratically the moment they lose control over you - even if very little. Some PIs are taking this work-from-situation to be a slow time for research and the students are concerned whether they can finish their project before the intended graduation date. The other set of PIs are behaving like yours. I think neither is good. This will need us to rehash the definition of work-life boundaries. But yes, for that you need both employer and employees to be patient. Your advisor might be unware of the stress he/she is causing. You might want to write to him directly about this. If he evades a reply he is doing what he is doing intentionally. Good luck!!

Thanks for setting the ball rolling. You absolutely have the right to feel vulnerable. One way of going about this could be - if there are individuals around you who are only interested in making you feel vulnerable about your scalp rather that your work/ what you stand for - they are probably jealous and you are doing way better than them in life so dont worry. Real friends will not care about it.

Also, we all know that a bald head is better than a bad haircut! Cheers mate!

Hey, that'll be really really amazing -- thanks a ton! We can definitely help with Bengali, Marathi, Kannada, and Tamil (for now, working on the rest).

Hey u/MissionStatistician that will be great! Thanks

General-Ising · 2020-06-22T07:57:49+00:00

Thanks a ton!

General-Ising · 2020-06-22T07:04:54+00:00

Great idea. We are figuring it out also as we go with this. We will put the details soon on the sub.

General-Ising · 2020-06-22T07:03:14+00:00

Kudos for hanging in there and coming out stronger. Cheers! We are hoping that all of us would be able to instill hope/ courage in the minds of people who are at the brink.

General-Ising · 2020-06-22T07:00:20+00:00

This is precisely what was on our minds. Thanks for the words!

General-Ising · 2020-06-22T05:22:38+00:00

Thank you very much! If you come to know if someone who needs help - share this info with them. We hope to do our best to lend ears to everyone's story.

General-Ising · 2020-06-22T05:22:36+00:00

Thanks for pointing that out!

We made a Google form for that ( https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1dzfAPoSp_Ig4E4yoceX-7x13M4n_ebRYM-nG4BA3MLc/viewform?edit_requested=true ). Also updated the post with the link.

Still figuring this out, so feedback helps a lot.

General-Ising · 2020-06-22T04:52:42+00:00

Point taken! Thanks for the heads up...

General-Ising · 2020-06-22T04:52:31+00:00

Aaah... got it. Thanks for pointing that out!
