An exotic electronic state observed by MIT physicists could enable more robust forms of quantum computing. The electron is the basic unit of electricity, as it carries a single negative charge. This is what we’re taught in high school physics, and it is overwhelmingly the case in most materials in n...

Researchers have developed a genetic algorithm for designing phononic crystal nanostructures, significantly advancing quantum computing and communications. The new method, validated through experiments, allows precise control of acoustic wave propagation, promising improvements in devices like smart...

NASA harnesses the power of supercomputing to advance our understanding of the universe, from redesigning launch pads for Artemis II to developing AI for climate modeling. These innovations are showcased at the International Conference for High Performance Computing, where researchers present findin...

Strontium titanate’s remarkable ability to perform at extremely low temperatures makes it a key material for next-generation cryogenic devices used in quantum computing and space exploration. Superconductivity and quantum computing have moved beyond theoretical research to capture the public’s imagi...

I liked Flickr's now-deprecated [hash-the-params](http://www.flickr.com/services/api/auth.howto.web.html) authentication because it was simple (though [flawed](http://vnhacker.blogspot.com/2009/09/flickrs-api-signature-forgery.html), it is fixable). Now it seems like most sites are using OAuth 1....

Still very alpha... developed during a Startup Weekend event.
