If you ever get awed and overwhelmed by the incomprehensible vastness of space, just keep in mind that it’s expanding, more rapidly minute by minute, and to the best of our understanding it will never ever stop

RT @EU_ENV: #AirPollution is one of the greatest 🌍 environmental health risks according to @WHO, contributing to the development of heart diseases & strokes

This 🆕 study has found that the health burden attributable to air pollution has dropped over 3 decades 👉 https://environment.ec.europa.eu/news/european-health-burden-attributable-air-pollution-fell-over-three-decades-1990-2019-2023-01-11_en

RT @EU_ENV: Around 1/3 of the EU's bird species are not in a good conservation status

With our Birds Directive, we want to protect all 500 wild 🐦 species naturally occurring in the 🇪🇺 & their habitats

🆕 research indicates how protected areas can be most effective: https://environment.ec.europa.eu/news/bird-conservation-protected-areas-are-most-effective-when-over-50-hectares-size-2022-10-10_en

#quantumcomputing is...

Perhaps you have seen some news about a "breakthrough" from China in quantum computing? My BS detector was definitely activated but I really wanted to hear what Scott Aaronson had to say. He does not disappoint. tl;dr "No. Just No." #quantumcomputing #factoring https://scottaaronson.blog/?p=6957

#QuantumComputing and #QuantumTechnologies can profit from #MachineLearning: Ranging from interpreting noisy measurement data up to the discovery of new quantum strategies or quantum experiments.
