The Grand Staircase inside Hogwarts Castle is magically whimsical, unpredictably opening up new routes while simultaneously closing others. How could this possibly be analogous to a quantum computer architecture?

It's fairly common for startups to hire new CEOs as they grow. The Quantum Dragon doesn't cover "common," though, so what's so special about this hire?

If you’ve ever endured a long-haul journey with multiple connecting flights, you know that a direct flight reduces your total travel time (execution time) and decreases your risk of lost baggage (errors). For your consideration: the direct flight analogues of multi-qubit gates.

What’s a “cluster”? Oak Ridge National Laboratory has installed the presumably-first on-premises commercial quantum computer cluster, consisting of 3 quantum dragons... I mean computers... from Quantum Brilliance, and that could mean a few different things. So, I asked for clarification.

🚀 Pushing the limits of superinductors with vertically‑stacked Josephson junctions

🔍Check our new designs of high-impedance hyper-inductors. We open a scalable path to high impedance hyperinductors for exotic protected qubits:

📄A related design has been proposed recently in the group of Alexey Ustinov (ArXiv:2503.11437v1).
