 I want to welcome technology enthusiasts. Thank you for visiting my blog. I saw something that moved me enough to write a post. I got in my work email an item from D-Wave. As anyone that has followed my blog knows, that company is one that inspires me and that proves to me Quantum Computing is a reality. That it is just a matter of time, and everyone will be using Quantum in one way or another.

 The pdf is titled “How Quantum Can Fuel Operational Excellence Today”.  It is free. The website will ask for a name and an email address but giving them information to get hold of the material is well worth it. That type of information on anyone is easy to find on the internet anyhow.

 The second thing that happened this week will take some background information in order to understand the story.  I live in Western New York. Chuck Schumer is a New York Senator working in Washington D.C. I have heard him speak at my bachelor graduation ceremony at Alfred State College. Senator Schumer has also spoken to my students at multiple graduations. He was in the Buffalo, Rochester, and Syracuse areas to announce that the three areas combined is one of the first federal superconductor tech hubs.  Mandating that area is planting the seed to make that area the New Silicon Valley. Giving manufacturers an area to start building in Western New York.

 On a more personal note, I have launched my Microcomputing Website. It is not even close to being done.  But it is good enough to share. I am planning to bring links to websites that link to free tools for PC maintenance and repair. I will make sure the links are free of payloads.  Currently the site has links to sites that I have used for ages but some I have just found. In the future they all will be evaluated.

 \I want to thank you for visiting and as usual I will leave the blog on for you.

Debrief of the 2023 STEM Summer Institute

  This was the week I presented at the 2023 STEM Summer Institute on Quantum Computing.  On both days of the conference the attendance fluctuated between 35 to 100 people in attendance. In my humble opinion, the conference was still suffering COVID side effects.  I am sure the next time we meet in 2024 the attendance will be higher.   When Tuesday morning, August 1, 2023, came around I had six people, two photographers and myself. I thought this was great. I knew we would have the ability to discuss Quantum Computing thoroughly. Especially since we had many academic areas represented: administration, teaching standard influencers, and other educational technicians from k-12 and college.   I opened the presentation introducing myself and in good education fashion we went around the room to build community. I then went into what is Quantum Computing   using my blog instead of a PowerPoint for presentation material.  I showed my picture gallery ....

  Hello My Blog Followers, I am sorry it has been a while.   It is the end of the semester and things are moving at a busy pace.   It is hard to buy out time to share information. I thought I would take some time and tell you what is coming down the road for the blogs and the information I present. The first is I am hoping to display some of the activities of my students from this semester: Microcomputer Systems and Network and Security Protocols. Microcomputer Systems is based on the CompTIA A+ information.   I have my students’ doing videos on the different subjects that we cover in that class. If I get their permission to publish, I will share that with my followers. The Network and Security Protocols consists of seventh semester Bachelor students and three Master level students.   All of them are going to be making videos on High-Speed networking.   Today’s technology is looking at making it standard to have at least ten gigs for data collecting...

The weekend is here.  The next academic year is about ready to start.  I am constructing and planning two classes so it is “time to make the doughnuts”.  (If you are unfamiliar with the reference, click here for YouTube video ) I am going to make this brief and to the point.  The push to bring Quantum Technology to the colleges has already started.  I will provide the link and you can do your own research.  The one that hits closest to home is RPI.   RPI (Rensselaer PolyTechnic Institute) now has a Quantum Computer on campus provided by IBM . Other Schools: University of Waterloo University Article from Microsoft talking about University of Washington . M.I.T and Quantum Computing Caltech Thank you for being patient as the school season is starting. Please come again.   “I will leave the Blog on for you”
