Quantum Navigation via Magnetic fields.

<quote>
Even when the equipment was mounted inside a plane, where interference is much worse, it outperformed existing systems by at least 11x. This is the first time quantum technology has been shown to outperform existing tech in a real-world commercial or military application, a milestone referred to as achieving “quantum advantage."

Not only for the military !

I'm dipping my toes in #esphome reading the documentation, and it's awesome! It supports an huge quantity of #sensors, the data read from the sensor can be filtered and manipulated, it supports a lot of #displays and #graphic libraries! It is extremely well integrated with #homeassistant as it's the main use case. It's very flexible! I can see how I could do other little projects with this, but unfortunately it seems not to expose a standard REST Api...
They say the native API "is based on a custom TCP protocol using protocol buffers. You can find the protocol data structure definitions here: api.proto A Python library that implements this protocol is aioesphomeapi.", so I should be able to interface with it, but it isn't very interoperable (and it probably isn't meant to be)...

📄 We recommend the new paper on “Counter-practices: Understanding sensor datafication through subversive action” by Christoph Borbach and Max Kanderske, published in the new journal Dialogues on Digital Society.
The authors propose a situated, praxeological approach to study sensor datafication by following three strands of subversive sensor counter-practices.
