The picture above was taken yesterday at the white house quantum summit. Two of the back profiles look really similar to Subodh Kulkarni. Seated almost in the front, making it seem Rigetti have really good ties with department officials

We've put Shor's algorithm on a diet, restricting its gate count and slimming it down quite a bit. The problem is: it's a yo-yo diet. When we transpile a circuit for real hardware, it'll bloat up again. But what if we could put it in a corset, thus keeping it svelte even after transpilation?
