Not much going on. I am still working slowly through Simply Scheme. I am at a point where they want you to diagram some functions. Like diagramming sentences in junior high.

There was an article on Bloomberg about quantum computing (Hacker News page here). That started me doing a lot of surfing about quantum computing. IBM has the IBM Quantum Experience, which allows you to try quantum programs on their quantum cloud.

There is a wiki about QC called Quantiki. One page is a page with a list of simulators. One of them is a page called Quantum Playground. I found a couple in Java: one by a guy who goes by the name ardeleanasm, and one called JavaQuil. JavaQuil is a port of pyQuil, an API for a project called Forest, which is another QC cloud. It is run by a company called Rigetti Computing.

You’re welcome.
