I hate to be the one to point this out to @apsphysics.bsky.social news, but didn't this become common knowledge after the seminal work of Ace Ventura on the Ray Finkle case way back in 1994

Amazing to see the work of @itsmealeale.bsky.social and Partyk L Bartosik highlighted like this.

Having followed it as it was written and knowing the hard work that was poured into it, really brings a smile to one's face to see it highlighted.

Yes to detecting entanglement using thermodynamics!

“Anomalous” heat flow, which at first appears to violate the second law of thermodynamics, gives physicists a way to detect quantum entanglement without destroying it.

Yesterday, my daughter referred to In 'n' Out animal style fries as "California poutine", and now it will forever be called that in my household.

It's been 3 months but I finally got through posting the recordings from our QIST in the CSU workshops. The recordings don't do the discussions justice. Hopefully, these are useful to folks interested in learning #quantum info science and tech and get it in their courses.

Typing with a bandaged finger is (unsurprisingly) extremely frustrating and slow.
In related news, knife safety and personal protective equipment is important and should not be ignored, even if "it's just one piece of drywall and a small cut"

It is too early in the day for the number of emails littered with curse words I've drafted and deleted to be this high. #FFFFFFFFFFFFuck #DeepBreaths

A few weeks ago we hosted our 3rd set of QIST in the CSU workshops. Always great to gather with colleagues and learning more about quantum science and how to teach it. Here are some photos from the Introductory QIST and Educational Modules workshop, Quantum Sensing workshop photos in the reply...

Today for shits and giggles, I took a BNC cable Jerry-rigged a loop out of it and plugged it into a scope to see what I'd pick up in my lab.

What the hell would cause this? Like a clock, every 4 seconds jumps amplitude. The underlying signal is ~171 kHz

It's Memorial Day in the US, which means it's time for the periodic reminder that the best tribute to the sacrifice of those who fought and died in wars in the past is to work to see that there are fewer of them in the future.

Been a bit of a chaotic few weeks for me with everything going on, but happy to say in all that chaos the Perron family became a little more complete. Welcome to the world Wells "Whoopsie" Perron

Enjoying a pretty standard beer to go along with the #StanleyCupPlayoffs. (Sorry for the dad joke)
Great come back win by the @winnipegjets.com to kick it all off.
