[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] [LCTG Matters] Meeting Reminder: Quantum Mechanics videos presented by Barry Kort. 10AM ET Wednesday, June 26, 2024. Lexington Computer and Technology Group

 The links appear to have gotten truncated, at least in my Yahoo Web Mail. 
The first link is good (for me):
Quantum ExplainedWill Oliver Professor of physics and director of the MIT Center for Quantum Computing
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)

78,644 views  Jun 10, 2024  MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGYhttps://youtu.be/jk0jWzlvA5w?si=owC5njX2yCn8mzsD
Are these links for the same courses?:

OpenCourseWare, MITx, and MIT xPRO at Open Learning:

Quantum Computation: https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/18-435j-quantum-computation-fall-2003/ 
Quantum Computing Fundamentals: https://xpro.mit.edu/programs/program-v1:xPRO+QCF/ 
Quantum Computing Realities: https://xpro.mit.edu/programs/program-v1:xPRO+QCR/ MIT Open Learning Library’s collection of free online courses: https://openlearning.mit.edu/courses-programs
I didn't find an exact match for the last link, but the MIT News Channel on You Tube is at:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLC9B6711584A06935

I hope this helps.
Feel free to offer corrections or better links.

In explaining quantum technology, professor of physics and director of the MIT Center for Quantum Computing, Will Oliver cites MIT's interdisciplinarity as a key component in developing these technologies. In this video he, along with research scientist Jeff Grover, explore the origins of quantum mechanics and the state of quantum computing today.

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology is an independent, coeducational, privately endowed university in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Our mission is to advance knowledge; to educate students in science, engineering, technology, humanities and social sciences; and to tackle the most pressing problems facing the world today. We are a community of hands-on problem-solvers in love with fundamental science and eager to make the world a better place.

The MIT YouTube channel features videos about all types of MIT research, including the robot cheetah, LIGO, gravitational waves, mathematics, and bombardier beetles, as well as videos on origami, time capsules, and other aspects of life and culture on the MIT campus. Our goal is to open the doors of MIT and bring the Institute to the world through video.

PS: I've never heard before that my house in Lexington's coordinates on the planet [Latitude: 42.423130 Longitude: -71.196777 Elevation: 75.00 meters msl] {for my house footprint at grade} are a Qbit superimposing the North and South Poles
PPS: sounds like it could be the origin of a new class of Pole-ish Jokes

If this email wasn'taddressed to you and you would like to join the group, or if you have a friendor colleague who might also be interested in joining, it's easy.  Ask themto go to the group's wiki page at http://LCTG.toku.us and follow the simpleinstructions under "Join the Email List".  By being a member ofthe group you'll get reminders of upcoming meetings and infrequent relatedmessages. No advertising.  The list is tightly managed.

Membership is free and given that all meetingsare available on Zoom you only need to be connected to the Internet to join. It'sok to join from anywhere you can get a decent Internet connection.

   - We, the Lexington Computer and Technology Group, will meet Wednesday at the usual 10AM Eastern Time online, using the Zoom Video Conferencing Application, facilitated by Steve Isenberg. (If noted above, we may also be at the Lexington Community Center.)

There is an instructionpage at https://toku.us/zoomishbut note that the URL and phone number shown are examples.

   - From a “dumb” telephone, call 1 646 876 9923 and enter meeting ID: 972 6146 0830 

   - Once the connection is established, you may need to locate and use the on-screen controls that turn on the sound and the video. You should be able to see and hear others and they should be able to see and hear you, if you have a camera and microphone (each of which you can unmute selectively).
