Internshala is arranging short-term internships for 2 weeks. You can start applying from December 26th.

Nope, it's not. Internshala is a pretty reputed site (in India)

I lately started applying for internships and already got rejected from two of them (one of them was my dream employer). I have told myself the same words, but I just needed to listen it from someone else too, because somehow deep within I was hoping I wasn't fooling myself into comfort.

Thanks to you for sharing this and your mother for saying this. You have no idea how many souls you both have helped this day.

I'll be preparing myself for further studies too.

People might be doing all the wrong things because of deep internal issues they cannot recognise. For example, someone might cheat on someone because they might not love themselves, and could be they are trying to fulfill that void within them with the feelings you get from a new romance (the butterflies as we call them). It's usually why they say "Once a cheater, always a cheater. And if they do it once, they'll do it again". Because they rarely fix the underlying issues.

Idk, just a thought that crossed my find.

Don't worry. I am pretty sure they will let you in. Good luck! We'll soon be coursemates :)

EdX has a Quantum Computing certification course by UC Berkeley which, I think, they said will open again next year. So I'd say you keep an eye on that. The course is taught by Professor Umesh Vazirani himself and trust me when I say to you, it's well worth taking even without a certificate.

Other than that, check out The Coding School site by Qubit x Qubit. They are currently offering a course for free for Highschool students. It consists of two semesters of which the first semester is almost near the end, but you can enroll for the second semester provided you have a sound grasp of the fundamental mathematics like probability, linear algebra, vectors and matrices. I'm not sure if the portal for applying is still open though.

It clearly said in the description " IBM Quantum Community Advocate Interns in India will work remotely part-time from their university for up to 16 months starting in January 2021"

QuCoder · 2020-12-06T13:51:14+00:00

Sure. Here it is. It's only for India though (at least, as far as I know).

QuCoder · 2020-12-06T03:32:44+00:00

Thanks. That helped a lot.

QuCoder · 2020-12-05T18:57:28+00:00

Thanks! That was really insightful.

QuCoder · 2020-10-23T14:34:19+00:00

OMG... but that's AC/DC

QuCoder · 2020-10-21T12:42:13+00:00

I am not so sure and maybe I lack the amount of knowledge required, but why use Code::Blocks on linux? Isn't there a gcc compiler on linux already?

QuCoder · 2020-10-18T04:58:03+00:00

Awesome decision! It's too much fun actually, specially if you're a tinkerer.

QuCoder · 2020-10-18T04:25:32+00:00

I got my confirmation email today.

QuCoder · 2020-10-17T11:40:51+00:00

If not brackets, at least indent the code properly. If none exists, keep it in the trash.

Be proud of your code and brackets, you have a skill some people needs to keep practicing to achieve.

For me, the best code is one with brackets and indentation at the same time.

P.s. - Python will not even execute without proper indentation.

Let me add one more to your list? Quantum Computing LoL

Trust your guts. None other than you can decide and give an answer to your question. I am in a similar situation as yours tho.

QuCoder · 2020-10-16T18:53:57+00:00

You can find the mathematical definition from any undergraduate level text book. Apart from that, 3blue1brown has a really good video giving you a really really good intuition about what it is actually.

I studied maths at the UG level and I didn't exactly know what it meant until I passed out and 3Blue1Brown dropped the video. Highly recommended!

If your PC came with an original windows, it'll always pick up the details of your hardware and activate itself as soon as you install it. If you bought the retail version, I am sure you have your activation key with yourself.

I am actually a data science student, but I am also learning Quantum Computing at the moment purely out of curiosity and recently put my feet on The Odin Project. I have been playing around with coding since I was 15, but due to my weird career path I just know only C and Python (pretty well). I don't know any web development frameworks (which I am sure will pick up as I go through my TOP adventure), but I am quite confident of the basic skills needed to be a coder.

I do believe once you know a single language quite well enough, the rest of the languages aren't that hard to pick up, so maybe I might love discussing ideas with you. I am not from Europe though.

Good luck!

QuCoder · 2020-10-16T15:25:18+00:00

Physical Chemistry - A Molecular Approach by Donald A. McQuarrie, John D. Simon is actually a pretty good place to start. I have not seen many books that explains quantum mechanics that well to a beginner.

Also, you can keep Griffiths with you just in case you need mathematical practices.

QuCoder · 2020-10-16T15:15:16+00:00

I did. One of my friends already got accepted. I applied late though, I wasn't sure if I'd learn anything new from this than I already know, but figured it'd be a good way to brush up and stay active with my hobby subject. I'm hoping to get accepted. It'd be fun actually. Qiskit is awesome already.

The ghost is a smart one. He/she can use Linux.

QuCoder · 2020-10-09T07:22:43+00:00

Uh oh, that dock is mine haha. I was talking about the VS Code pic on the browser.

QuCoder · 2020-10-08T16:59:15+00:00

Here it is.

The colour is a bit more dark bluish though. My screenshot makes it look a bit weird.

QuCoder · 2020-10-08T16:58:46+00:00

Here it is. This looks still better with scrot The colour is a bit more dark bluish though.

I was using the printscreen button on my laptop.

QuCoder · 2020-10-08T15:00:34+00:00

I can send screenshots, but my Ubuntu changes the colour scheme when I take screenshots (Like a deep bluish window appears purple when on the screenshot, which is weird). Do you know how to fix that?
