See https://ai.googleblog.com/2022/11/making-traversable-wormhole-with.html for a recent advance from Google researchers using their Sycamore quantum computer.

This lead me to ChatGPT to see if it could talk sensibly about this research before the fact and in some way predict the approach used.

Tavis Rudd: Hypothetical ways to make a Traversable Wormhole with a Quantum Computer using AdS/CFT. Discuss it from the perspective of information theory and geometry

One possible approach to creating a traversable wormhole using a quantum computer and AdS/CFT is to leverage the holographic principle, which states that the physics of a gravitational system can be described by a lower-dimensional boundary theory. In the case of AdS/CFT, this boundary theory is a conformal field theory (CFT) that encodes the information about the bulk AdS space.

Using this principle, one could attempt to encode the geometry of the wormhole in the CFT, and then use the quantum computer to manipulate the CFT in order to manipulat

CALLING ALL VANCOUVER POLYGLOT UNCONFERENCE VOLUNTEERS!

Would you like to rub shoulders with industry professionals from Microsoft, Hootsuite, Mobify, Plenty of Fish, Clio ... to list a few of our (sold out) conference sponsors? Volunteer for us at our 3rd annual Polyglot conference! For a few hours of your volunteer time, you will be able to attend some of the sessions, and entitle you to get all of the swag that paying attendees would get.

TIME COMMITMENT

May 24, 2014: We are primarily looking for people willing to do registration in the morning (7:30am-12:30pm), plus 1 or 2 people willing to volunteer as photographers for the event throughout the day and help with clean up (4:30-5:30pm), as needed.

Lazy, infinite recursive sequences in Bash (like in Haskell, if you squint).

I was inspired by the beautiful Haskell zipWith implementation of the Fibonacci sequence `fibs = 0 : 1 : zipWith (+) fibs (tail fibs)`
to find an equivalent in bash using 'coroutines' and recursive pipes.

My original experiments were https://twitter.com/tavisrudd/status/367164339716751360
"fun w/ recursive pipes: e=echo;mkfifo fib;{ $e 0 1 1 >fib &};{ while read i j k; do $e $i >&2; $e $j $k $(($j+$k));sleep .4; done;}<fib>fib"

and https://twitter.com/tavisrudd/status/367142071489937408
"o=ouro;b=boros;mkfifo $o$b;e=echo; { $e $o > $o$b & }; { while read s;do $e $s>&2;case $s in $o)$e $b;;*)$e $o; esac; done; }<$o$b >$o$b"

;; ## Changes from cljs.repl.browser
;; 
;; * Multiple concurrent browser-REPLs can be safely used
;; * The browser-REPL's HTTP server is now always-on
;; * Each browser-REPL session supports a new top-level "entry" URL that
;;   can be used to easily start the REPL in a browser or other JS runtime
;;   (i.e. you don't need to have a separate webapp running to initiate the
;;    browser-REPL connection)
;; * The entry (and REPL) URLs are available in slots on the browser-REPL's
;;   environment, making it trivial to automate browser-REPL sessions
