Sergey Frolov writes Sergey’s Substack, a personal blog at spinespresso.substack.com about science and writing. Since 2023, 3 different Hacker News readers have linked it 3 times, most often “Has there been enough retractions?”. The last post was in 2024, but the archive is still widely read.
Too few sampled comments (1) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
Linked in a thread on Microsoft's Majorana 1 quantum processor. The one comment is an explanation of topological quantum computing and does not mention or judge the blog's writing.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 1 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

What Hacker News says?
I'm doing theorical research in the topological quantum computing. The idea behind topological quantum computing is to utilize quantum materials whose low-energy physics looks like an error correcting code. Since these systems are very large (macroscopic number of atoms), the error rates are (theoretically) very low, ie the qubit is fault tolerant by construction, without any additional error correction. In reality,…
