THE MAJOR catalyst in recent quantum advancements is the use of error-correcting codes to minimize noise produced during quantum computations. Google's Willow chip was the first well-demonstrated example of using AI to implement quantum-error correction, where they showed that

When local media report false stories that play into exaggerated and misleading narratives it’s exceptionally frustrating. There is no evidence that this story is true. In fact it’s false

People are rightly focusing on the notwithstanding clause, but the worst part of Bill 2 is the total ban on striking until 2028. Because the scope of an illegal strike is broad, this means teachers are working under threat, not choice. The UCP has made dissent punishable by law.

Workers are realizing that they need to keep up, the NDP and Governments in Canada in general are underestimating the will of workers. “Getting” 3% per year is hardly extravagant and likely barely ahead of inflation. Governments can always “make” more money.
New Democrats privately mocked BCGEU leader Paul Finch—unrealistic expectations, no exit strategy. He had a better read on them than they had on him. 3% a year for each of 4 years is a rich deal, that BC, running $10 billion deficits, can ill afford.

Here's to a great #WorldSeries and a tariff-free friendship between Ontario and California!
With the Blue Jays heading to the World Series against the LA Dodgers, @CAgovernor Newsom and I have a friendly wager going. Win or lose, we’re thrilled to celebrate great baseball, good neighbours and a friendship between Ontario and California!

Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump is calling Reagan’s words in this video “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much
If Joffrey Baratheon grew up to be an American president, this is pretty much what it would look like.

Here are the words Trump doesn't want you to see: “When someone says, ‘Let’s impose tariffs on foreign imports,’ it looks like they’re doing the patriotic thing by protecting American products... Markets shrink and collapse, industries shut down and millions of people lose their

Why are school administrators telling teachers and learning centre teachers that there is a limit on the number of students that can be tested for learning needs per year? 1 kid per year for a large middle school seems like gate keeping. Kids need support! #bced @lisabeare @bcndp
