I would say that if you are still publishing your work in a "traditional" journal you are part of the problem and you should stop.

Sometimes good people post links to bad websites. Say I never want to see the New York Times in my feed; is there a way to automatically suppress all posts linking to it without blocking or muting the post authors?
How would you do this? Using the Guppy programming language you can write programs with arbitrary control flow, function calls, classical logic and data types, dynamically allocated quantum and classical data, etc etc.
Since quantum computer time is very expensive, we also have a strong type (linear) system to catch many common errors at compile time.
It's open source. There is also a simulator called Selene you can use to run it. Check it out.
Helios is a better quantum computer in all the ways you expect: it has more qubits, it has better gates, and it goes faster. But the real step forward here is the control system and the software built on that.
Put simply, Helios is the first quantum computer that is also a *computer*, and you can program it directly as a computer.
In other words, the quantum circuit is a dead paradigm.

Second, magic state prep by code switching from the 15 qubit Reed-Muller to the 7 qubit Steane code. Resulting magic state has better infidelity than raw physicals by 2.7x.
First up, we have demonstrated the preparation of magic states for the [6,2,2] code and use them to perform the Controlled-Hadamard gate with an order of magnitude better error rate than using the physical qubits directly.

Quantinuum are looking for QEC person to join our compiler team. Ideally you know lots about QEC and a bit about compilers but the other way could work too. Full-time, permanent, based in Cambridge in England. If you are only interested in remote work, this is not for you.

Hello quantum friends. My team want to hire someone to work on adding QEC support to our quantum compilation stack. The ideal person will know about fault tolerant quantum computing and be keen to learn about how modern compiler tools work. The other way around might work too. The job is based in Cambridge, UK.
Please share!

Austin Fowler at #mqsf : "if you're making a quantum compiler you need the ZX-calculus." ❤️
So gratifying that the world has caught on to the ZX-calculus, and also that the catalyst was this under-appreciated paper. https://quantum-journal.org/papers/q-2020-01-09-218/
Do you like quantum programming languages? Do you want a job? If both answers are yes, this might interest you.

Quantum error correction AND category theory?! What more could you want than this paper from my colleagues Alex Cowtan and Simon Burton! It was on the arXiv a while ago but it's finally out in Quantum.

Quantum computational advantage is a fraught business. If you have too few qubits, your quantum computer can be simulated classically. If you have too little gate fidelity, your quantum computer can be simulated classically. If your connectivity is too sparse, your quantum computer can be simulated classically [*].
However! Quantinuum H2's system, now running at 56 qubits with >99.8% fidelity, can do things that cannot be simulated classically. Here is the first demonstration.

Ofc, random circuit sampling is not exactly *useful* but we expect to show some more interesting things in the coming months.
[*] This is a bit more subtle than the other claims; see the paper.
This is pretty cool, to put it mildly. You won't see this in the press coverage, but there is a lot more of this coming in the next few months.
