My name is Jarek. I work at the Jagiellonian University in Poland, where I dig into data, models, and ideas until they either hold up or fall apart. I also share papers I find genuinely interesting - no hype, just solid work.

Qubits get jostled during calculations. New trick splits protected qubit into two entangled ones mid-computation, fixing errors on the fly. Less wobble, more quantum juice. 🚀

A star 2.5M light-years away just vanished, collapsing into a black hole without a supernova. Its outer layers faded slowly, leaving a lingering infrared glow. Quietly, but definitively. 🌌

Scientists think we might have 33 senses, not five. Smell, touch, sound, sight, and balance all mix—food tastes different in a noisy room. Maybe your coffee's always better at work. ☕
