This looks like the layout for the "Watch Together" feature: https://messengernews.fb.com/2020/09/14/feel-together-messen...

There's a bottom section that slides up and if a user clicks on one of the videos it will play for all participants. If anyone sees this and didn't intentionally click on one of those videos please file a bug!

To be fair, most of the 10 nm problems were already in place when BK was still the CEO.

LLwN is super helpful, nice product.

Hi Cliff, I have two of your Klein bottles which I very much enjoy, but recently I've had a hankering for something without quite so many embedded Möbius bands -- have you ever tried to make a glass Boy's surface by any chance?

As an Angular developer I would be interested in reading some Angular->React conversion stories. I've dabbled in React a few times but it never felt compelling enough to switch, but maybe I missed the good stuff.

PS: If you're in the area we're hosting a Julia User's meetup this Saturday: https://www.meetup.com/Bay-Area-Julia-Users/events/260499372...

Rigetti Computing | Software, Data, IT, Fab, Physics, other | Full time | On-site | Berkeley & Fremont CA | Visa Sponsorship | https://www.rigetti.com/

Rigetti Computing is building the world's most powerful computers to help solve humanity's most pressing problems. Our quantum computers are publicly available on our platform, Quantum Cloud Services, today and free for academic use. We're looking for software engineers, data engineers, physicists and others to help design, test and build our next generation of quantum computers. Our software stack includes Python, Common Lisp, Julia and Typescript, and we rely on Docker, CI/CD, and cloud deployment.

A few of our open roles:

- Director of Infrastructure, Quantum Cloud: Lead our infrastructure organization and enable the success of Quantum Cloud Services.

- Software Engineering Manager, Quantum Software: Lead our software team that builds out our internal-facing tools.

- Software Engineer, Qubit Manufacturing (Fremont): Support our fabrication facility with analysis, automate custom tools.

- Software Engineer, Qubit Design & Test: Work with our qubit design and theory teams to build automated simulation and analysis pipelines.

- Software Engineer, Data Infrastructure: Build out our internal data infrastructure and collaborate with our full-stack quantum engineers and deployment teams to support Quantum Cloud Services.

- Senior Full-stack Software Engineer: Help build and optimize Quantum Cloud Services.

- Director of Site Reliability Engineering, Infrastructure Engineer, Site Reliability Engineer.

- Quantum IC Design Engineer: Develop simulation and CAD tools for building quantum circuits.

- Senior Software Engineer: Improve the performance of our qubit control software and compiler stack.

- Infrastructure Engineer: Build out our internal compute infrastructure and support Quantum Cloud Services.

- Software Engineer, Quantum Applications & SDK: Develop and maintain open source tools and libraries for quantum programming focusing on near-term applications and algorithms, in areas such as chemistry, physics, optimization and machine learning.

- Computational Scientist (multiple positions): Enable simulation-driven device design via a Julia-based computational physics stack.

If you're interested in these or any of our open positions, please apply online to the most appropriate position and also email [email protected], mentioning this post.

Thanks!

Building better quantum computers.

I did a PhD in condensed matter, finishing in late 2014. I'm now working as a SWE at a quantum computing startup, focusing on internal manufacturing and test data. My graduate experience is very useful for this position, even though I'm not doing much physics directly.

I absolutely don't regret getting a PhD -- I went to a well-run program, had a great advisor, and met tons of awesome people. I also don't regret leaving academia. I enjoy the "working on hard problems" bit a lot more than the "unlocking secrets of the universe" part.

One more role:

- Computational Modeling and Simulation: Enable simulation-driven device design via a Julia-based computational physics stack.

We're also big users of Julia.

Rigetti Computing is building the world’s most powerful computers to help solve humanity’s most pressing and important problems.

We're hiring software engineers, data engineers, and data scientists as well as for other positions: https://www.rigetti.com/careers

We're particularly interested in engineers and scientists who are comfortable working with manufacturing and experimental data. Prior experience with SQL, Julia, Python, Typescript, Docker, and/or visualization is helpful, as is a background in the physical science or experience working in a laboratory setting. If this sounds like you, please also email alex.mellnik@ and steven@ the expected suffix directly.

At Intel I developed a few product modeling tools in Julia, including one that's now used in the introduction of every new product. The only real annoyances that I ran into were related to dependency management in Pkg2, but I think Pkg3 should solve all of that. I'm quite new at Rigetti, but I would suggest keeping an eye on our GitHub page.

I used Julia in my day-to-day work at my previous job (Intel) and in my new position (Rigetti). There's quite a few companies that are using it in production now.
