Quantum computing, built from  qubits

The math I skipped. The algorithms. The parts that bent my brain. I spend my days building systems where one wrong assumption quietly breaks everything downstream. I come to quantum the same way: I run everything before I believe it.

Who I am

Latest notes.

The notebook, in order, as it grows.

  1. 10:44 Quantum Computing

    Relative phase: the invisible engine of quantum

    Probabilities cannot see it, the next gate can. Global vs relative phase, and the experiment that makes the invisible visible.

  2. 22:33 Milestones

    One circuit, two IBM Quantum error codes: 1506 and 1603

    20 identical submissions, 11 of one code and 9 of the other. Which one you get decides whether IBM tells you what is wrong.

  3. 13:47 Quantum Computing

    The tensor product: why 10 qubits means 1024 numbers

    One humble operation builds the space that every multi-qubit state lives in, and explains the exponential. Two qubits in, four amplitudes out.

  4. 23:06 Quantum Computing

    I could not find a place to practise Qiskit, so I built one

    Every Qiskit tutorial I found was written for a version that no longer runs. So I built twenty exercises that check your answer by inspecting the objects your code produces.

  5. 00:24 Quantum Computing

    Entanglement, explained without the spooky

    The Bell state in two lines of code, what correlated really means, and why none of it sends messages faster than light.
