A gallon is a unit of measurement for liquid capacity. It is commonly used in the United States and some other countries. There are two main types of gallons: 1. **US Gallon**: The US gallon is defined as 3.78541 liters. It is used primarily in the United States for measuring liquids such as milk, gasoline, and other beverages.
The Kosten unit is a unit of measurement used in the fields of economics and biology, particularly in animal physiology and energy expenditure studies. It is used to quantify metabolic energy consumption or efficiency based on various activities. The term "Kosten" is derived from the name of the scientist who developed the concept.
As of my last update in October 2023, "Splittance" does not appear to refer to a well-known concept, term, or technology within general knowledge, popular culture, or specific technical fields. It’s possible that it could be a brand, a software tool, a term used in a niche context, or a recent development that has emerged after my last training data.
Twin-width is a structural parameter in graph theory that is used to measure the complexity of a graph in terms of how it can be decomposed into simpler components. It is particularly useful for understanding certain classes of graphs and can provide insights into their properties and potential algorithmic approaches for solving problems on them. The concept of twin-width was introduced in a paper by Bui-Xuan, Dolecek, and Fomin in 2020.
The term "Petersen family" can refer to different contexts depending on the specific area of interest. Here are a few possibilities: 1. **Cultural or Historical Context**: The Petersen family could refer to a family of historical or cultural significance in a specific region or country. 2. **Literary or Film Reference**: There might be fictional works, books, or movies that feature a "Petersen family" as characters.
E-Rate, officially known as the Schools and Libraries Program, is a federal program in the United States designed to help schools and libraries obtain affordable telecommunications and internet access. Established under the Telecommunications Act of 1996 and administered by the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC), the E-Rate program provides discounts on eligible services based on the level of poverty in the area served by the school or library.
A **clique graph** is a concept in graph theory that pertains to representing cliques within a given graph. A **clique** in a graph is a subset of its vertices such that every two distinct vertices in the subset are adjacent, meaning there is an edge connecting each pair of vertices. In simpler terms, a clique is a complete subgraph.
An acyclic orientation of a directed graph (digraph) is an assignment of directions to the edges of the graph such that there are no directed cycles.
As en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=ZX-calculus&oldid=1071329204#Diagram_rewriting tries to explain but fails to deliver as usual consider the GHZ state represented as a quantum circuit.
The naive way would be to just do the matrix multiplication as explained at Section "Quantum computing is just matrix multiplication".
However, ZX-calculus provides a simpler way.
And even more importantly, sometimes it is the only way, because in a real circuit, we would not be able to do the matrix multiplication
This is always possible, because we can describe how to do the conversion simply for any of the Clifford plus T gates, which is a set of universal quantum gates.
Then, after we do this transformation, we can start applying further transformations that simplify the circuit.
It has already been proven that there is no efficient algorithm for this (TODO source, someone said P-sharp complete best case)
But it has been proven in 2017 that any possible equivalence between quantum circuits can be reached by modifying ZX-calculus circuits.
There are only 7 transformation rules that we need, and all others can be derived from those, universality.
So, we can apply those rules to do the transformation shown in Wikipedia:
and one of those rules finally tells us that that last graph means our desired state:because it is a Z spider with and .
One of the four following states:
The Bell states are entangled and non-separable. Intuitively, we can see that when we measure that state, the values of the first and second bit are strictly correlated. This is the hallmark of quantum computation: making up states where qubits are highly correlated to match a specific algorithmic answer, and opposed to uniformly random noise. For example, the Bell state circuit is a common hello world, e.g. it is used in the official Qiskit hello world.
One of the causes Ciro Santilli care the most about: motivation.
How to improve education? Simple:
- tax the fuck out of the rich people and companies: wealth tax and invest it in education
- invest intelligently as mentioned at what poor countries have to do to get richer:
- focus on fewer higher excellence schools that select the most promising poor students, rather than giving crappy average to everyone
- use OurBigBook.com
Whenever Ciro Santilli walks in front of a school and sees the tall gates it makes him sad. Maybe 8 year olds need gates. But do we need to protect 15 year olds like that? Students should be going out to see the world, both good and evil not hiding from it! We should instead be guiding them to the world. But instead, we are locking them up in brainwashing centers.
Video "The Purpose of Education by Noam Chomsky (2012)" puts it well, education can be either be:He has spoken about that infinitely, e.g. from when he was thin: www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVqMAlgAnlo
- a brainwashing to make people comply with The Establishment
- a way to get people genuinely interested and help them to reach their life goals
Bibliography:
- www.youtube.com/watch?v=ts7CEFQM2bE How Education Became Indoctrination: Dr Stephen Hicks (2021) Interview by www.youtube.com/c/KnowlandKnows Interesting channel. "Are you sick of woke-washing in education? Free speech distinguishes education from indoctrination" and "I taught at Eton College before I was fired because 'The Patriarchy Paradox' caused offence.".
Similar to quantum supremacy, but add the goal that the computation must be useful, i.e. make money or solve some open mathematical problem, Ciro Santilli's wife was quite excited about the possibility of finding some counter examples in number theory with quantum computers.

Pinned article: Introduction to the OurBigBook Project
Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
Intro to OurBigBook
. Source. We have two killer features:
- topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculusArticles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
- a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
- a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.Figure 1. Screenshot of the "Derivative" topic page.

- to OurBigBook.com to get awesome multi-user features like topics and likes
- as HTML files to a static website, which you can host yourself for free on many external providers like GitHub Pages, and remain in full control
