Magic state cultivation on a superconducting quantum processor

Abstract: "Fault-tolerant quantum computing requires a universal gate set, but the necessary non-Clifford gates represent a significant resource cost for most quantum error correction architectures. Magic state cultivation offers an efficient alternative to resource-intensive distillation protocols; however, testing the proposal’s assumptions represents a challenging departure from quantum memory experiments. We present an experimental study of magic state cultivation on a superconducting q

Show HN: git-dupe – Version private files alongside a public Git repo

Hi HN!I made git-dupe to solve the problem where I have notes, skills, and agent instructions that are part of my personal workflow, so I do not want them committed to the public repo, but at the same time, I want them to be in the project at the correct locations (e.g., AGENTS.md file locations matter), and these files cannot be simply gitignored because I want versioning for them.The solution that I&#x27;ve come upon is versioning those agent files in another repo, say &lt;private-repo&gt; (th

The only things that go online are web search (can be turned off in settings) and any MCP co
