Join Andrew Musselman and Trevor Grant as they present the latest developments in Mahout's new quantum compute layer, Qumat. They will provide an overview of the project, explain why Qumat was developed, and demonstrate its current capabilities. They will also present a demo of Qumat in action and conclude with calls to action for researchers and engineers who are interested in using and contributing to the project.

Traversal emerges from stealth with $48 million from Sequoia and Kleiner Perkins to reimagine site reliability in the AI era
Traversal launches from stealth with $48 million in funding from Sequoia and Kleiner Perkins, Fortune has exclusively learned.

Now for some theology. Since Eve was created by God from Adam's rib, she/he/they had a Y chromosome, therefore she/he/they was biologically male -- not just the first woman but also the fist trans. Her/his/their three children with Adam must have been created by cloning and thus were all male. Were it not for daughters born from Adam's affair with Lilith, the human species would have ended there, since when the couple left Eden they lost access to free health care including furthe…

Dynamical Horizons and Black Hole Soft Hair
In the present work, quasilocal Brown-York charges are derived that coincide in the large sphere limit with the conserved supertranslation hair and superrotation charges introduced by Hawking, Perry and Strominger in [45, 46]. Given these charges, a general scenario is outlined in which a non-rotating black hole completely evaporates after its collapse due to particle creation effects, whereby a genuine one-way traversable event horizon is never formed, but merely a two-way traversable dynamica…
