Let engineers decide what to build

Here's my attempt at distilling it:

"Normally in a quantum computer, if we apply measurement function F to input x so y=F(x), it's impossible to reverse F and turn y into x. However, if we constrain y, we can make a special function G_Y such that x=G_Y(y)"

Whilst I don't have time to really dive through all the sections, this seems weirdly click-baity and IBM-promoting for an academic article.

Nice refreshing list :)

I didn't think "Attention > Convolution" was a prevalent myth, given how integral convolutions are to SOTA image classifiers and GANs (if anything, I believe attention is unde-utilised here and due to grow in usage a lot)

We had a little MySQL db, and both the data and the different systems consuming it grew quite rapidly, faster than we could get ahead of given company priorities. We have a read-replica for the BI dashboarding system, and this keeps our world relatively stable and reliable.

Thanks for reading and replying! By author I mean "that which writes books on bestseller lists" as opposed to "that which outputs text". Hope that clarifies.

If it helps you can take respectfully to mean "the recipient will not feel angry or attacked due to the message tone" and constructively to mean "the recipient will finish reading the message feeling positive with ways to improve their work or actions".

The answer is probably they spent around two days building this before demand grew left them zero time to improve infrastructure. Which is more or less good.
