Codetown ::: a software developer's community
I ran into Steve from First Magnitude at Ward's yesterday. Sure am looking forward to tomorrow's GatorJUG. Last time, a couple of developers from Opie Software just happened to be there. I'll have a few interesting new books to talk about, one in particular is called "If Hemingway Wrote JavaScript". Adam mentioned Java 7 EOL, so we'll look at the implications of versioning Java. The Apple event yesterday was all about getting smaller, faster and running longer with innovations like health research related apps that are open source. Open Source Bridge extended their call for papers and I have one ticket to raffle off! Exclamation point! I'm looking at airfares to Portland, which are as cheap as they'll ever be right now. OSCON is also coming up. I go every year. So, please let your friends know we'll be getting together at First Magnitude tomorrow night at 6PM in the back near the firepit. All the best, Michael

Google has announced its new 105-qubit superconducting chip, code-named Willow, which solved a quantum supremacy experiment that would take at least 300 million years to simulate on a classical computer. More importantly, the chip shows how quantum hardware may achieve fault tolerance in such a way to seemingly unleash its scalability.
