Noisy Intermediate Scale Podcast - March Showcase – Episode 31
Quantum Computing Now
03/21/21 • 47 min
In which I play the first episode of the Noisy Intermediate-Scale Podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/show/noisy-intermediate-scale-podcast
----- Notes from Michał’s Podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/user/13914305/1-what-quantum-software-engineers-do
- In this episode I talk about the job of quantum software engineers. What this job is about and how it's different from similar positions? What challenges do QSEs face? What are some typical tasks that they work on? I tried to answer all these questions.
Some links to useful resources:
- My blog: www.mustythoughts.com
- A pull request containing some of the changes I've talked about testing validity of gates: https://github.com/zapatacomputing/z-quantum-core/pull/145/files
- The code containing the ansatz interface I talked about: https://github.com/zapatacomputing/z-quantum-core/blob/master/src/python/zquantum/core/interfaces/ansatz.py

Reprogrammable Quantum Secure Hardware with Mamta Gupta - Episode 47
Quantum Computing Now
07/14/23 • 51 min
We've heard on the show before about software needed to secure devices in a post-quantum world, but what about the hardware? Mamta Gupta from Lattice Semiconductor is here to tell us all about that!
A note: at one point, Mamta talks about massive parallelism being the reason for quantum computing's speedup. As far as I can tell, it's not. I didn't think during the podcast was the best time to bring it up, but if you want to learn more, I recommend looking at the episode I did with Scott Aaronson and also the episode with Jon Skerrett
