Did you read Part 1 last week? As a reminder, the heralded photon is a single photon that is heralded by the heralding photon. You need the heralding photon to know you have the heralded photon as the heralded one is harder to detect. Single photons are used in quantum computing. I went down that
If you are a quantum physicist and find yourself here, you’re in the wrong place. Everyone else might find this helpful 😊 Recently I heard about “the heralded photon”. I asked my quantum physicist son to explain it to me. He is a very, very, very good explainer of complex science to lay people (if
Imagine a workplace where every team member feels safe sharing their ideas – even the unpopular ones. That’s psychological safety, and it’s an imperative for good decision making for every leader, as every leader is influenced by the voices or the silence of peers and direct reports alike. It’s not enough saying you want open

However, what I have witnessed way too often is a deferment due to a lack of clarity on the agreed appetite for risk.
Why? Why? Why does my brain lie to me?! Bias and noise. We like to think we’re rational operators. Decades of behavioural research – Kahneman, Sibony, Sunstein – tell us otherwise. We anchor on the first fact we hear – anchoring bias. We seek evidence that backs up our beliefs – confirmation bias. And our
