Can you give us some Ford x Pacifica headcanons?

God anon im so sorry this took forever and i hope youre still lurking on my blog because YES I CAN HOLY SHIT THANK YOU FOR LETRING ME INDULGE

pacifica is into ford because shes into smart badass nerds the way dipper was when they worked together and ford is basically all that BUT MORE. more experience, more skills, more physical prowess and like she said. is super hot lmfao

ford and pacifica meet that day when they got into the whole face stealer thing— ford appreciates that she covered herself in garbage knowing it was an effective disguise among the creatures in the black market. AND that she actually pulled off fooling them before dipper blew it. pacifica is like, instantly flustered and a blushing mess

both of them expected she would be super disgusted when she shakes his hand and sees the six fingers— ford never got over the way cathy crenshaw freaked out over his hands and well, pacificas a judgmental bitch— but honestly seeing how tiny her dainty princess hand was in his gigantic and calloused palm was sort of an awakening for pacifica for size differences. ford is already a creep via dipfording and is also mega into it, but actually manages to be normal about it in the moment

when pacifica works at the diner and the stan twins make their way there, pacifica ALWAYS wants to get ford order and has a pretty obvious hopeless crush and throws in some WAY too nice compliments about his dumb research, but ford has waitress trauma so he doesnt realize it lmfao stan does tho and just rolls his eyes all the time and is

adding my d*pcifica bias here but also cuz its the most realistic way the main two are gonna get it on: i LOVE the idea of pacifica knowing dipper has a weird intense crusb on his uncle while theyre dating and is like okay but can i get in on that. dipper is like ?????? and pacifica is like oh come on in not STUPID dipper, if you want to fuck your uncle at least let me join (because she wont admit she wants to be in on that too) its not like i care your family is already super fucking weird and im still here. also hes super hot so

ford would more or less agree for dippers sake more than not but like, he would get to live out SO much of his pent up frustration about girls from his adoloscence on pacifica that, he def had gotten rough with her in the middle. dipper thought it was super fucking hot and wishes ford didnt see himself in dipper so much so hed treat him like that too sometimes fr fr

honestly the northwest family is not a good family, so pacifica adjusts to this dynamic way too well. which is concerning. yet fascinating for ford. he wants to psychoanalyze pacifica like hes some kind of psychologist ignoring the fact hes not at all qualified for it because he has 12 phds so he can do that anyway

ALSO abbigail northwest being a former inventor would mean ford would def be interested in more of her family history— its just FAR too fascinating to not touch

In The Book of Bill, Dipper has his nightmare about his parents having... Maritial issues? Do you think Dipper tell Pacifica about the possibility of his parents spitting up? I know Pacifica tells her problem with her parents with Dipper.

On another note, angst dipcifica ideas?

Loooong post ahead. I think I got a little carried away.

I like the idea that Dipper and Pacifica, as they become better friends and stuff, both confide in each other - we only really see Pacifica confiding in Dipper in the show and books, which makes sense because she has one episode and one story focused on her (The Golf War was more about Mabel than her, though it was definitely important for character development) but just her telling him about her own problems probably wouldn't be sustainable for a long term relationship (whether romantic or platonic) (he's not her therapist lol)

I realize that's not really answering the question, that was just my tangent about what I headcanon (fun fact about me: I don't have very many headcanons because I like to keep my options open for what I write/draw about - I know headcanoning something doesn't automatically mean you can't ever go against that headcanon, it's just a random thought in my second tangent in this answer) so for if he tells her about his parents possibly splitting up: Maybe. I'd say it depends on how much their relationship (again, this could be platonic or romantic, even if I know we both ship them lol) has developed since the events of Northwest Mansion Mystery and Face It. It also could depend on how long it's been since they met her; she was still a bully to Mabel (and mean to everyone, but Dipper mostly cares about Mabel) and even if both the twins forgave her he might not be willing to open up very quickly to her. On the opposite side, she's already been vulnerable with him twice, which could make him more willing to open up in response to her, especially since it's (if we take his search history in BoB as canon and not something Bill made up, which I am generally inclined to do for when he was talking about anyone other than himself, but there's still the possibility that he was just Making Stuff Up) pretty much canon that he doesn't have friends outside of Gravity Falls and Mabel.

Tl;dr it depends on how you interpret them and their relationship post-canon. I would say that he'd probably tell her. Not right away or anything, but if they keep in communication with each other, eventually.

That was a lot of words, but I guess I have a lot of thoughts about these guys?

As for angsty Dipcifica ideas . . . this one's a little harder for me, since . . . well, I'd say I'm not a super angsty writer, though I've definitely done some. But I've come up with a couple!

The two of them go on some sort of adventure/monster hunt, get into a fight, and maybe they're distracted from something attacking them or one of them pushes the other and they fall in a hole. They get injured and the other one blames themselves for extra angst points! Could probably work with either in either role, though if Pacifica is the one who does NOT get injured there could be angst about her mean girl era, and if Dipper's the one who didn't get injured he could have angst because of his lower self esteem.

Other characters disapproving of their relationship. Not just Preston and Priscilla, who can definitely put a lot of angst (mostly on Pacifica) and you can definitely do a lot of different things with that relationship, but also some of the Pines's friends and family, like Stan, Ford, and Wendy, who can disapprove because she was a bully. Or even the Pines parents if they're a little older and Dipper takes Pacifica to meet them! Why the parents would disapprove, I have no idea. Well, I have some ideas, buuut I digress. This could put pressure on both of them and maybe they consider ending their relationship but ultimately decide that they're happier with each other (and they'll always have Mabel's support. She's the #1 Dipcifica shipper.) Unless you want to take it a really angsty route and they do break up. Maybe they get back together, maybe they don't.

They're dating but they're both super insecure about themselves and this culminates in . . . idk, maybe they hide their insecurities which leads to trouble, or maybe they sense the other's insecurities and try to help them, but it ends up backfiring and hurting them instead. Then they have guilt and even more insecurity!

I think that's all I got for now, though I'll probably be thinking about more Dipcifica angst stuff for a few weeks, but this was fun! I hope the wall of text wasn't too hard to get through and that it wasn't too confusing!

Tensor Networks quantum computing improves MPF Approaches

Quantum computing tensor networks

An innovative algorithm combines quantum and classical computing to improve quantum simulation accuracy.

IBM Quantum, IBM Research Europe, IBM Research Almaden, IBM Thomas J Watson Research Centre, Donostia International Physics Centre (DIPC), and the University of Central Florida developed a new algorithm that uses tensor networks and quantum computation to simulate quantum many-body systems more accurately than either technique alone. This unique method, presented in “Tensor Network enhanced Dynamic Multiproduct Formulas,” addresses major disadvantages for classical and quantum simulators.

Hamiltonian dynamics simulations are needed to understand out-of-equilibrium characteristics in chemistry, material science, and high-energy physics. Only small systems or brief evolution times may be simulated by conventional computers due to the exponential cost of representing entangled quantum states. Although these dynamics may be replicated by quantum computers, mistakes can accumulate and high-precision simulations on near-term devices become costly due to the lack of fault tolerance in present processors.

Hybrid Benefit: Multi-Product Formulas and Tensor Networks Niall F. Robertson, Bibek Pokharel, Sergiy Zhuk, and others lead the hybrid algorithm. Makes use of:

Multiproduct Formulas (MPF): Linearly combining multiple Trotter product formula approximations of time evolution operators cuts algorithmic error. Unlike static MPFs, this dynamic MPF technique uses time-dependent coefficients optimised to minimise error, improving numerical stability and accuracy across long simulation times.

Matrix Product Operators (MPO): The traditional technique uses MPOs to compute MPF coefficients. One key observation is that several overlap quantities necessary for MPF optimisation can be described as weakly entangling operators even when the time-evolved quantum states are strongly entangled. This allows classical computation of these coefficients with favourable memory scaling (logarithm of bond dimension scales proportionally to T times dt squared, where T is time and dt is Trotter step), unlike directly storing quantum states. The algorithm's classical processing stages use less memory than classical quantum state simulations.

The approach also uses the Approximate Quantum Compiling (AQCtensor) technique. It uses tensor networks to find short-depth quantum circuits that approximate initial time evolution segments up to time t1. This optimised circuit is paired with more Trotter steps for longer simulation times (t2), reducing quantum circuit depth and device faults.

Shown on IBM Quantum Computers

The complete method was shown on a 50-qubit one-dimensional quantum simulation issue using two IBM quantum computers, ibm_torino and ibm_kyiv. The experiments showed that the dynamic MPO-MPF technique was more accurate than a single, deeper Trotter circuit using quantum hardware. The MPO-MPF technique with a classical bond dimension of χ=50 showed lower inaccuracy than pure Trotter or Matrix Product State simulations with χ=400 or χ=100, respectively.

When used with the AQCtensor algorithm, the hybrid method allowed reliable simulations at extended evolution lengths. Pauli twirling, twirled readout extinction, and dynamical decoupling reduced quantum hardware device defects. IBM_Kyiv also employed Probabilistic Error Amplification to model and scale noise to improve results.

This study shows that combination of quantum computation and tensor network approaches has great promise. The results suggest that this hybrid technique may reduce algorithmic and device errors in quantum simulation and enable the simulation of more complex quantum systems than one-dimensional spin chains.

To conclude

This paper provides a hybrid quantum-classical technique for modelling quantum Hamiltonian dynamics, focussing on material science and chemistry-relevant out-of-equilibrium properties. The basic method uses quantum Multi Product Formulas (MPF) and tensor network algorithms to reduce simulation processing costs. The discovery of Matrix Product Operators (MPO) for classical dynamic coefficient calculation is notable.

MPO scales memory better than MPS in several simulations. The paper also tests this MPO-MPF technique with AQCtensor, an approximation quantum compiler, on real quantum hardware. It improves accuracy and simulation time by decreasing device flaws with Pauli twisting and dynamical decoupling.

March 10 Critique

Reflective: two chair technique (conflict)

Reflective: Gestalt Theory in art and design

3D: try different material for more noise (pipe cleaner)

3D: good concept. Makes sense with some explanation

3D: another interpretation could be that the ball is the breedbate and the wires/string are coming from it, causing conflict, bending this form that's supposed to be a cube into a skewed version of it.

3D/Reflective: I also discussed how the wires left sharp ends when cut, causing me to get scratched a few times while making my 3D piece.

Data Integration with Oracle

Data Integration with Oracle

Oracle’s data integration product landscape outside of GoldenGate has with the arrival of Oracle Cloudbeen confusing at times.

Remember this post?

Over half a year after posting, I want to thank all of you who have read this post of mine. At first, I thought my post was too far out of reach, because only a few people liked it, but now I have around 70 notes and this post is still getting liked and reblogged. 

This morning, the 3FM DJ Domien Verschuren announced that Tijn, who moved millions with his nail polishing challenge and his backstory, has died at 7 o’clock the same morning. It was a conversation at last year’s Serious Request between Verschuren, who was a participating DJ, and the father about Tijn’s brainstem glioma, that was gradually killing him, and challenge that moved the entire country, including many celebrities and important people. 

I can’t believe what Tijn had achieved during the over six months between the first post I wrote about him and this post. All the time, he had been undertaking action despite his health problems.  

He received the Cross of Merit and an apostolic blessing from the Pope with a cross. They even decided to name a planetoid after him. 

Even after receiving this much recognition, he didn’t stop. He recently launched his own nail polishing brand and was a guest at a late night talk show, together with people who support him. The polishing was for a different purpose now: he and his family collaborated with a foundation set up after the death of another child with brainstem glioma to help beat the now incurable DIPC. That action has grossed over a million euros within a few days.

Many people reacted to his death shocked. We all knew he was going to die, but we didn’t expect this to happen today. The national Red Cross called him “the best fundraiser we ever had”. 

Today, the world has lost an incredible six-year-old who has achieved so much in the last days of his life, by doing incredible things we are all capable of doing. May his family be forever proud of their son, grandson, brother, nephew or cousin and what he has done for the good. 

A Dutch artist (who regularly struggled in life due to stuttering) wrote a song dedicated to him. These lyrics describe what we all want to say to him right now.

You’re a hero, a wonderful boy, an eternal story.

You’re an example for all of us.

Tijn, je bent een voorbeeld voor ons allemaal.

When a band falls flat: Searching for flatness in materials

Finding the right ingredients to create materials with exotic quantum properties has been a chimera for experimental scientists, due to the endless possible combinations of different elements to be synthesized.

From now on, the creation of such materials could proceed in a less blindfolded manner thanks to an international collaboration led by Andrei Bernevig, Ikerbasque visiting professor at Donostia International Physics Center (DIPC) and professor at Princeton University, and Nicolas Regnault, from Princeton University and the Ecole Normale Supérieure Paris, CNRS, including the participation of Luis Elcoro from the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU).

The team conducted a systematic search for potential candidates in a massive haystack of 55,000 materials. The elimination process started with the identification of the so-called flat band materials, that is, electronic states with constant kinetic energy. Therefore, in a flat band the behavior of the electrons is governed mostly by the interactions with other electrons. However, researchers realized that flatness is not the only requirement, because when electrons are too tightly bound to the atoms, even in a flat band, they are not able to move around and create interesting states of matter. "You want electrons to see each other, something you can achieve by making sure they are extended in space. That's exactly what topological bands bring to the table," says Nicolas Regnault.

5: Volunteering

Sebetulnya ini hal yang sangat meh dan tidak terlalu penting bagi sebagian orang (tidak termasuk saya yang menganggap ini hal yang sungguh berarti sekali sampai ditulis di sini). Jadi ceritanya hari ini saya dapat sebuah afirmasi yang sangat saya syukuri di tengah-tengah demam dan pusing. Di saat-saat berat itu saya berusaha tetap memberikan kontribusi walaupun gak banyak tapi waktu mem-voluteer-kan diri mikirnya "niat aja dulu membantu" toh sebenarnya bagian dari tanggung jawab saya juga.

Tidak ada ekspektasi bakal mendapat berbagai 'terima kasih' dan 'pujian'. Karena sadar diri juga saya tidak sebaik itu dalam melakukan hal itu. Sekadar pernah, punya waktu, dan tenaga. Tapi sampai dipc buat bilang "baguuus", "cocok jadi presenter", atau dibilang "kamu kalo bikin podcast kasih tau dong, tar ku dengerin", dan banyak lagi kata-kata yang benar-benar tidak dibayangkan akan jadi respon orang-orang ini bikin terharu.

Ya Allah semoga orang-orang ini bertemu orang-orang baik juga ya sama seperti saya yg alhamdulillaah bersyukur banget ketemu orang-orang ini. Huhu terharu banget pokoknya kelompokku.

New light on baryonic matter and gravity on cosmic scales

IMAGE: The presence of ionized gas around galaxies with moves with them leaves a trace in the microwave background radiation (left panel) which can be detected knowing the pattern of velocities… view more 

Credit: Carlos Hernández-Monteagudo (IAC).

Scientists estimate that dark matter and dark energy together are some 95% of the gravitational material in the universe while the remaining 5% is baryonic matter, which is the “normal” matter composing stars, planets, and living beings. However for decades almost one half of this matter has not been found either. Now, using a new technique, a team in which the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) has participated, has shown that this “missing” baryonic matter is found filling the space between the galaxies as hot, low density gas. The same technique also gives a new tool that shows that the gravitational attraction experienced by galaxies is compatible with the theory of General Relativity. This research is published today in three articles in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society (MNRAS).

In designing this new technique they have analyzed the changes in the electromagnetic spectrum, its shift to the red, caused by the reddening of the light from the galaxies as they speed away from us. In the Universe, the sources which move away show a redder spectrum, and those which approach us show a bluer spectrum. This effect has given essential data for the development of modern cosmology. Almost a century ago, Edwin Hubble discovered that the redshifts of galaxies are bigger the further away from us they are, and this was the initial evidence which eventually led to the Big Bang model of the universe. Since then these redshifts have been used to find the distances to the galaxies and to build three dimensional maps of their distribution in the Universe.

In the work we are reporting here a new method has been developed, which studies the statistics of the redshifts of galaxies, without converting them to distances. In their first article, the team shows that these maps are sensitive to the gravitational attraction between galaxies on cosmological scales. In a second article, the same team compare the maps with observations of the cosmic microwave background,, and they permit, for the first time, a complete census of the baryonic matter during 90% of the life of the Universe.

“Most of this ‘ordinary’ matter is invisible to us because it is not sufficiently hot to emit energy. However, by using maps of the redshifts of the galaxies we find that all of this matter fills the space between them”, explains Jonás Chaves-Montero, a researcher at the Donostia International Physics Center (DIPC) and first author of this article.

Finally, as found in a third article, the researchers have also used the redshift maps of the galaxies to study the nature of gravity. “In contrast to previous approaches, our new method is not based on any conversion of redshift to distance, and it is shown to be robust agains noise and data impurities. Thanks to that it allow us to conclude with high accuracy, that the observations are compatible with Einstein’s theory of gravity”, notes Carlos Hernández-Monteagudo, an IAC researcher who is the first author on this third article.

These studies have been performed by researchers Carlos Hernández-Monteagudo, Jonás Chaves-Montero, Raúl Angulo and Giovanni Aricò, who designed the research during their time at the Centre for Studies of Cosmic Physics of Aragón (CEFCA), even though now they are working at other Spanish research centres, such as the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias, and the Donostia International Physics Center. In one of the articles there was participation also by J. D. Emberson, a Canadian researcher at the Argonne National Laboratory, Illinois, USA.
