              For some reason the audio was all weird for this recording and the recording cut off at the end before I finished up. That's okay though, I just went through the exercises for that video by myself and the summary I put down was "see day 14" because it was basically the same content

                        If you're listening on the podcast version, so you don't waste your time I recommend using a podcatcher that can automatically skip silence like AntennaPod: https://antennapod.org/ (that's what I use!)

                          About Quantum Computing Now

                          From the publisher's feed

                          From Ethan Hansen - This is a podcast all about quantum computing news, basic concepts, and what people in the field are doing. Quantum computing is serious stuff and we talk about serious science, but I try to not take myself too seriously. With that being said, quantum computing is rad as heck. Oh and here's the obligatory phrase " quantum computing podcast " so search engines pick this up.
