I'm a bit late to the party here, but this is an excellent article. It takes time, but if you've ever wanted to learn about quantum computing, this is the place to start. It's one of the few bits of exposition built around what we know makes people remember things effectively.

For those of you who don't know

@michael_nielsen

wrote the bible of quantum computing ("Mike and Ike's") about 19 years ago, and

@andy_matuschak

is a software wizard whose gone deep into education research, so when you see them collaborating, you know it's going to be good.

Andy’s contributions to the Mac dev world are legendary. I am so excited about this new project. I don’t know Michael, but his writing makes the difficult so much clearer (like Grant’s). And the whole approach has me really *doing* linear algebra to make sure I really get it.
