Quando engenheiros alemães e suíços construíram uma ponte sobre o Reno em 2003, algo saiu errado: os lados não se encontraram. O alemão estava 54 centímetros acima do suíço. O desalinhamento ocorreu porque os engenheiros alemães haviam medido a elevação com um nível histórico do Mar do Norte como ponto zero, enquanto os suíços haviam usado o Mar Mediterrâneo, que estava 27 centímetros mais baixo.

In 2003, engineers from Germany and Switzerland began building a bridge across the Rhine River simultaneously from both sides. Months into construction, they found that the two sides did not meet. The German side hovered 54 centimeters above the Swiss side. The misalignment occurred because the German engineers had measured elevation with a historic level of the North Sea as its zero point, while the Swiss ones had used the Mediterranean Sea, which was 27 centimeters lower.

The electricity consumption of data centres is projected to more than double by 2030, according to a report from the International Energy Agency published today. The primary culprit? Artificial Intelligence (AI). The report covers the current energy footprint for data centres and forecasts their future needs, which could help governments, companies, and local communities to plan infrastructure and AI deployment.

Lots of quantum computing news this week/year. A little error correction here, cat qubit there -- and a whole lot of wtf is Microsoft claiming now. If you're wondering what it all means, here I try to sum up the state of things. https://t.co/jjplt0mW1a
Isn't it just so pretty to think: all along there was some invisible quantum algorithm tying you to me
