Also many of you never seem to consider just how amazing Nigeria is as a country to be going through all this without outside help. The Issus of what to do with thousands of war rape girls, which is what so-called Bokoharam wives are- if it had been Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, Bolivia or elsewhere, the West would been pouring huge resource to help rehabilitate such victims and help the relevant communities recover. And those nations would be receiving millions in financial assistance. But Nigeria is just let alone or abused and written about in ways that seem calculated to worsen things. I salute the Nigeria people and Military, they have been herculean in thire tackling of all these issues. |
I wonder how many of you consider the manpower, expertise and cost of aborting hundred of girls not to mention their after care. How feasible is this, given you people's low opinions of the Nigeria military capacity? |
Ladyhippolyta88:You don't understand how the West dances with truth and lies. What they and you mean by "Forceful" are different things. You and others on here are possibly imagining Nigeria army dragging protesting crying girls to abortion rooms and reaping their babies out of their wombs and throwing the bloody foetuses in buckets already slushing with preceding operations. What the West possibly means by Forceful is that although the girls may agree or even ask for abortions, the West believes that the girls do not possess the capacity to know what they want. This could be either because of age, war trauma or cohesion ( family pressure or fear of being ostracized from thire communities). In other words, the West are making a case for a sort of Statutory Abortion. |
xevove2061:The Devil himself learned how to lie from Oyibo. |
Whether Nigeria or not, may the gods relevant to each good soul welcome them, all these victims of primitivity. |
hammerT:You're nuts. Stark-raving-nuts. A loony . |
Sketch looks really creative, love it. Somewhat sterile and cold though... |
Realists:Why didn't all this Arab money, Arab football, Arab technology and Arab whatnot help Saudi Arabia, Qatar and any relevant none African Arab nation during this world cup? Why didn't it help Saudi Arabia, the mother of all Arab nations? |
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5qACZ2dmA0 That Dekiwatt portable Gravity light @ 5:20 apparently in mass use in "rural Africa" was interesting info.... |
Exmilitant:But what is you hypothesis on the matter and don't say that that is your hypothesis because you know what I mean.... And how consistent is the current Russia Ukraine war with post world war 2 European settlement given your implicit concite that white men do not veer from course ? |
Exmilitant:Not that I want them remembering what it was, but I wonder if you understand how profound your question is. |
Slawomirr:Nah, Nigeria is likely to be the first African nation to win the world cup. Even the current Nigerian team is more likely to beat this Moroccan side in a serious match today. |
SpecialAdviser:You don't hear this kind of news from other countries because those news are not posted here. In USA, for instance, inter forces rivalry often led to fierce brawls. Heard of no deaths though. |
It is always worrying when a team you support takes a high lead before halftime. For some reason, second half hardly results in the massacre you expect. And often the opposition annoyingly fights back. |
Quantum computing Quantum teleportation opens a ‘wormhole in space–time’ 30 Nov 2022 Quantum wormhole Teleporting qubits: artist’s impression a wormhole created in a quantum processor. (Courtesy: A Mueller/Caltech) The equivalent to a wormhole in space–time has been created on a quantum processor. Researchers in the US used an advanced quantum teleportation protocol to open the wormhole and send quantum signals through it. By studying the dynamics of the transmitted quantum information, the team gained insights into gravitational dynamics. The experiment could be further developed to explore quantum gravity or string theory. A wormhole is a bridge in space–time that connects two different locations. While wormholes are consistent with Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity, they have not been observed by physicists. Unlike wormholes in science fiction, they are not traversable – meaning things cannot pass through them. Although general relativity forbids travelling through a wormhole, it is theorized that exotic matter – matter with negative energy density and negative pressure – could open a wormhole and make it traversable. But these theories are difficult to test, even if one could create a wormhole in a lab. Quantum teleportation But physics has a trick up its sleeve – in the form of the quantum teleportation of information between two entangled particles. This process occurs instantaneously and therefore emulates the process of sending quantum information through a gravitational wormhole. In both cases, however, it is not possible to communicate faster than the speed of light because a subluminal signal is required to decode the information. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in quantum computing, therefore a quantum processors is the ideal experimental device to explore the similarities between quantum teleportation and wormholes. In this scenario, quantum bits – or qubits – on the quantum processor are entangled with each other and teleportation is the equivalent of the qubit travelling through a wormhole. Down the wormhole Now Maria Spiropulu at Caltech, Daniel Jafferis at Harvard University and colleagues have done such an experiment. Their aim was to create a system that has the right ingredients for the type of teleportation that resembles a wormhole. An important challenge that they first had to overcome is that it appeared that a large number of qubits would be needed to perform the experiment properly – many more qubits than are available in today’s quantum processors. To solve this problem, the researchers used machine learning to work out the minimum number of qubits required and how they should be coded to set up the quantum teleportation protocol. They discovered that they could create the wormhole dynamics on nine qubits with 164 two-qubit gates on a Google Sycamore quantum processor. In their experiment the researchers showed that they could keep a wormhole open for a sufficient amount of time by applying negative energy shockwaves, which came in the form of special pulses of quantum fields. They then studied the dynamics of the quantum information that was sent through. Signals that travel through a wormhole experience a series of scrambling and unscrambling, with the quantum information exiting the wormhole intact. Powerful testbed On the Sycamore processor, they measured how much quantum information passed from one side to the other, when applying a negative versus a positive energy shockwave. And because only negative energy shockwaves would open up the wormhole, they found that only these shockwaves allowed signals to pass through. Overall, the information passing through the wormhole had key signatures of a traversable wormhole. This constitutes a step towards probing gravitational physics using quantum processors and could lead to the development of powerful testbeds to study ideas of string theory and quantum gravity. READ MOREA representation of a wormhole in spacetime Quantum complexity could solve a wormhole paradox Juan Maldacena at the Institute for Advanced Study, in Princeton, US, who was not involved in the research, describes the work as an interesting first step in trying to create complex quantum systems that can have an emergent space–time description. He thinks the result is important because it is a demonstration that allows us to experimentally test some of the theoretical ideas about the connection between quantum mechanics and emergent space–time geometry. He says the research’s biggest achievement is that it has reproduced a kind of quantum teleportation that is inspired by gravitational problems. Team member Daniel Jafferis believes that there are many additional protocols and new ideas to explore and he expects more “gravity experiments” to be performed by quantum computers in the future. He thinks that some of these will require much larger quantum computers or much deeper circuits, but that others are well-suited for near-term experimentation. “One of the things we would like to do next is to realize somewhat larger systems and try to observe more detailed structure of the emergent wormholes and their gravitational dynamics”, he tells Physics World. Edward Witten, also at the Institute for Advanced Study and not involved in this research, says that the authors have done a nice job of describing a simplified version of the protocol that could be realized experimentally. He calls this experiment – and the presumed improvements that may be possible – to be a “milestone” in developing control over microscopic quantum systems. He states that even though such an experiment can certainly not give the sort of information that comes from physics experiments such as LIGO or the LHC, success with such experiments can confirm the validity of quantum mechanics in a rather subtle situation and also confirm that the theory has been analysed correctly. The research is described in Nature. |
Nigeria is the best footballing Nation in Africa. The other African teams against Nigeria are only boosted by thire Crabs in a barrell hatreds. When faced with foreign teams thire lack of real quality is exposed. Had Nigeria had the quality of England Senegal would have beaten Nigeria boosted by Crab in a barrel power. This is a truth you all don't want to accept. |
I feel Nigeria would have done well in this world cup. If Nigeria don't perform for black Africa the others will not. Yet Nigeria receives nothing but hate and bad mouthing from the black world. ![]() They keep sneering and bellyaching about Nigeria calling themselves giant of Africa, claiming that Ghana, Rwanda, this one and that one should be Giant of Africa. Yet give them opportunity to do something for Africa, they can't. |
I'm beyond why did they attack? Who orchestrated such a thing? I'm into such and such a place looks ridiculously easy to attack and should not at this stage in our history be so ridiculously vulnerable. Authorities in Nigeria don't seem to learn from experience. I hope authorities remember the Cameroon facilitated floods and are putting in place preparatory measures against a next time. |
BigBashiru:Ha, ha when lol and is not enough ....Next to Patrice O'Neal, few things make me laugh as much as the extent to which delusion informs the utterances of some Africans. |
bidexiii:So BHT have location too? As in their location (territory) and our location (territory) ![]() in whose country do these scumbags have location in? How can terrorists have location and still exist ? |
Nigerians go dey gnash teeth and cry Super eagles up and down and yet they spent the prior years expressing hatred for Nigeria and boasting about JAPPA. You wanted super eagles to play with determination, win all matches and qualify for world cup in order to make you proud of Nigeria abi? You want others to represent Nigeria similarly in order to make Nigeria a place where you will be proud enough not to shamelessly shout Jappa with pride, abi. So it is always Others and not you that must perform for Nigeria so Nigeria will be the place you patriotically embrace. The thing is, what makes you think the super eagles players didn't give up on Nigeria in thire hearts because you fans gave up on Nigeria . And like you they want others to first make Nigeria a place worthy of them to fight tooth and nails for on the pitch ? |
bigeliot:Racist! |
Uruguay - you couldn't find a much better opportunity for Ghana to progress than this. Ghana need to avoid complacency and fortify themselves with the thought of making history. |
famouscargo4u:The state of Delta is disgraceful. The place couldn't be worst if a governor's remit is underdeveloping a jurisdiction not developing it. I mean relative to budget. |
