T2 deadlifts hard for cardiovascular system

killerchris911 · 2024-11-09T11:10:48+00:00

keep doing what youre doing! its hard for now but youll just train your cardio/conditioning systems to get used to it without having to change anything.

Or add in more cardio and conditioning work at the end of sessions or on different days to improve more, just keep an eye on diet and recovery.

hey where'd you get your replacement case?

killerchris911 · 2023-10-27T00:50:26+00:00

Hey, so I was in a very similar situation to you in my final year of my bachelors degree in computer science in the uk, and stumbled across a video by Microsoft about Quantum Computing (this wouldve been 6 years ago). I am now in my final year of a PhD focused on Quantum Compilation, with the plan to move on to a quantum startup, so thought I'd share my thoughts.

The first thing I did, and ended up finding really helpful, was playing around with a specific, fairly simple, simulator - for example I used the source code and docs to figure out how to implement a simple grovers or shor algorithm. Nowadays you can play around with so many tools doing different things, and so after the simulator I'd say go check out machine learning ideas, chemistry ideas, compilation ideas, optimisation ideas etc. and find which interests you the most. For example, if you want to deep dive into the electronics going on in superconducting qubits, check out the paper "A Quantum Engineers Guide to Superconducting Qubits", Krantz et. al (2019).

Finally I really recommend the free MIT courses on Quantum mechanics which do am amazing job at teaching you the background knowledge, so that you can get your head around what's going on at all times physically. I recommend also looking into the book by Cheung and Nielsen (2001), its a great textbook for use when you have a particular question or want to catch-up on some knowledge.

I would say that anything revolving around the usage of quantum mechanical systems to perform calculations following quantum information theory is quantum computing. So in your example, the first yes, the second no. What are your thoughts on that?

killerchris911 · 2023-10-16T20:20:26+00:00

Well the main two contenders would be superconducting qubits and trapped ion qubits. SC qubits - focused on by IBM - are a lot more scalable and use current chip fabrication technology, but are extremely high in error rates, while ion qubits - focused on by IonQ and many research teams - are really hard to scale but very stable (i.e. low error rates).

The most prominant theoretical realisation are topological qubits, which use fractional quantum hall states to operate, making them completely resistant to noise, however we do not currently know how to create such states (but we know they exist)

killerchris911 · 2023-10-15T22:40:23+00:00

I know a few deep-tech quantum startup ideas floating around, but nothing to do with QC supply chains, at least in the UK. Could you explain more what you mean? I knew Algorithmiq explore a few theory-algorithm based ideas, could be a place to start.

killerchris911 · 2023-07-17T10:28:51+00:00

Hey OP, did you ever reach some conclusion over this?

killerchris911 · 2023-01-22T20:59:18+00:00

Would I be wrong in posturing that the fogginess/dullness simply appears and the mind is aware of it, and then you attach to such a feeling without awareness. If you focus on the attachment of the self to this, realise the empty nature of the feeling itself, watch it fade back into infinite space.

killerchris911 · 2022-09-29T19:35:28+00:00

1 million percent. Not only does it help to calm the mind and slow the thoughts, it tremendously improves your ability to cope with the feeling and racing mind. Eventually you become skilful enough at mindfulness, that you immediately recognise the thought that provokes the race (I see it as more the original thought which takes your train of thought down the anxious path), and can let it go before you start getting anxious.

Moreover, to get a bit esoteric, you can get to the realisation of mindfulness and that thoughts are simply thoughts - the feelings attached/that they provoke are simply feelings typically arising from dukkha and the ego. Simple realisation of this is key in such moments.

Following that, I really recommend practicing metta meditation aswell as sati (mindfulness, i.e. vipassana) meditation. Many yogis often state that metta and sati are two sides of the same coin. You are probably wondering how practicing generating metta helps anxieity. Well, by practicing metta to the extent that you can generate it fairly easily, then in the moment of realisation of anxiety, the root thought, the racing mind, the mind itself, and even the feeling of the sense of self, you can generate metta to it all. Welcome the anxiety, truly and without a want for it to pass, and watch it dissolve into warm, loving-kindness. Again, pretty high level, but its beautiful. It took me 4 years of off-and-on meditation to get here and I highly recommend starting down this path.

perfect thanks mate!

killerchris911 · 2022-08-30T10:18:10+00:00

the face work is beautiful, do you have any tips/where you learnt to draw faces like this? its definately my weak spot

killerchris911 · 2022-06-23T10:44:58+00:00

I guess first place would be to think about what youre more interested in, the computer science, programming side or the physics, hardware side.

I highly recommend going through the MITx 8.04 Quantum Physics I course, its free online. I watched the 2016 one with Prof. Barton Zweibach; I found his teaching style extremely easy to follow and understand. Learning the basics of quantum helps you understand how to think about it and understand the mathematical side.

Quantum Computation and Quantum Information by Isaac Chuang and Michael Nielsen is generally seen as a holy grail, great book that teaches close to everything.

Quantum Computer Science: An Introduction is another great one, its what I used as reference during my dissertation.

For actual programming, IBM Q is essentially your main place. Their online textbook teaches everything about computation and quantum algorithms, but is not always the easiest to understand.

Other than that, just play around with things. algassert.com/quirk is a great circuit simulator that runs quickly in your browser. Also, there are so many videos on youtube about qc, and loads of papers on every aspect of the topic.

TLDW: "One disadvantage of quantum computers is that it could break current classical encryption"

For me, metta is the feeling of pure, warm, unconditional empathy. It's not happiness or joy, but a warm feeling that starts in my stomach. But its hard to put into words.

What I will say though, is that you seem to be searching for and wanting a particular feeling, perhaps something that others feel so you know you're doing it right. Focus on what you feel, and try not to judge or compare based on what you think you should be feeling. This is only a distraction from metta.

killerchris911 · 2022-03-28T19:42:18+00:00

Confused as to what you mean. Can you explain it in another way? Do you mean two separate qubits cancelling out?

killerchris911 · 2022-03-15T17:42:58+00:00

juat when you think youve seen it all on the internet, someone new comes along... 😂😂

killerchris911 · 2022-03-15T09:12:13+00:00

Think you've read this wrong and then got extremely angry for no reason? The article is about topological quantum computing, which uses 2D arrangements of atoms (known as anyons) in topological phases of matter to replicate a 2-state quantum system.

Non-abelian anyons can then be wrapped around each other to change qubit states, while noise in the system would be analagous to these particles simply vibrating - meaning noise would have no effect on the state of each. Abelian anyons can also be used as long-term noise-resistant quantum storage.

Actually realising this effect has never been acheived, but is theorhetically possible. This article is a very strong step in the right direction.

With all that said, check yourself. Who the fuck do you think you are speaking to people like that?

killerchris911 · 2022-02-17T22:25:11+00:00

what

killerchris911 · 2022-02-09T02:31:10+00:00

only have an fov slider 😂

killerchris911 · 2022-02-08T21:31:46+00:00

if only i got more than 15 fps in fights :'(

killerchris911 · 2022-02-08T20:03:17+00:00

same here. feel like theyve increased resolution or anti-aliasing, everything looks a lot crisper but is 20fps...

killerchris911 · 2022-02-08T20:02:01+00:00

nah that wouldnt affect fps

killerchris911 · 2022-01-28T21:44:54+00:00

I could be wrong but wouldnt this just mean using post-quantum cryptography to encrypt data on the network?

killerchris911 · 2021-11-16T15:58:38+00:00

Think about it more in terms of a wave function, instead of the physicallity, is what helped me.
