Milestones

The checkpoints worth marking on a self-taught path. IBM Quantum badges, the first hardware run, each one dated and placed honestly on the record.

    My IBM Quantum node for n8n is now live

    Quantum and automation are my two threads. This node is where they meet. It is verified on n8n Cloud now, and installs straight from the canvas.

    Running Quantum Circuits on Real IBM Hardware from n8n

    I built an open-source n8n node for IBM Quantum and ran a Bell state on a real 156-qubit processor. The full loop, the transpilation gotcha, and why n8n.

    The density matrix: what the state vector misses

    A pure state fits in a vector. A noisy or entangled one does not. Density matrices, quantum channels, and what they show that vectors miss

    Three quantum ways to diagonalize a giant matrix

    A surprising number of hard problems are one eigenvalue problem on a matrix too big to build. Variational, Krylov, sample based, compared

    IBM Says I Understand Quantum Machine Learning Now

    Quantum kernels, variational classifiers, and the honest part: when quantum beats classical machine learning, and when it does not.

    I Just Earned My Second IBM Quantum Badge, and It Says Advanced

    My first IBM Quantum badge said Intermediate and it bent my brain. The second one says Advanced. It is about the algorithms that actually run on today's noisy quantum machines, and I am a self-taught builder who was not supposed to get here.

    I Just Earned My First IBM Quantum Badge and I Am Not Going Back

    There is a type of computer that holds every possible answer at once and only picks one when you force it to look. I found it a few weeks ago. I have not slept well since. First IBM Quantum badge earned. The chapter starts here.
