Strange New Phase Of Matter Created In Quantum Computer Acts Like It Has Two Time Dimensions | Eurekalert

STRANGE NEW PHASE OF MATTER CREATED IN QUANTUM COMPUTER ACTS LIKE IT HAS TWO TIME DIMENSIONS

According to a report in Nature earlier this year, physicists have created a new phase of matter. From this article: "By shining a laser pulse sequence inspired by the Fibonacci numbers at atoms inside a quantum computer, physicists have created a remarkable, never-before-seen phase of matter. The phase has the benefits of two time dimensions despite there still being only one singular flow of time … Information stored in the phase is far more protected against errors than with alternative setups currently used in quantum computers. As a result, the information can exist without getting garbled for much longer, an important milestone for making quantum computing viable." Ant‑Man would be proud. Eurekalert

Meet The Better-For-You Brownie That Actually Tastes Good | Dalci

MEET THE BETTER-FOR-YOU BROWNIE THAT ACTUALLY TASTES GOOD

Dalci was created by Najwa Khan, MPH, a health advocate who faced years of chronic pain and gut issues due to a processed diet. While she was able to change her diet to get rid of her pain, she couldn't find desserts that actually tasted good and didn't cause issues with her gut so she decided to create her own brownie that tasted homemade but actually worked for many diets. Dalci's brownie is gluten-free, dairy-free, grain-free, soy-free, refined sugar and sugar alcohol-free, and preservative-free. There are no leaky gut-causing hydrogenated or refined oils and Dalci is free of any gut-irritating additives, gums, or emulsifiers traditionally used for shelf stability. They use unrefined natural coconut sugar instead of sugar alcohols for a low G.I. It comes in a variety of flavors of brownies and blondies: Dark chocolate brownie, almond butter dark chocolate brownie, lemon coconut blondie, and apple spice blondie. Buy them on their own or get a variety pack to try all the flavors!
