I posted recently about Helios’ exorbitant vet bills from a few weeks ago and am sad to say her CKD progressed too rapidly despite various treatments. On both of her vets’ recommendation we let her go last Saturday on the 7th.
She was the sweetest, princessiest, most un-mischievous little darling I’ve ever known and I miss her desperately. I had a great 13 years with her. So I must memorialize her here where everyone can witness her magnificent fluff and beauty.

Was waiting for Helios to come out to eat because I like watching him eat. After 5 minutes of staring at the hide entrance, there is movement at the top of the tank. I look up.
My buttered noodle is on the ceiling.

if Solar’s dimension ever still existed, he would have had a Terra and Cosmos. perhaps he would have lived happier then despite Vesper’s hostility to him.
now that he’s in Elysium, he’s with Helios and Vesper. and he does gain a Terra and Cosmos in the form of Kore and Starlet.
he’s happy where he is now.
TLDR: he is never revived by Eclipse. he dies, and he stays dead. he never gets with Nebula, he’s with someone else (oc). Jack is only made by Moon since he found his blueprints Solar left behind. the Overseer arc never happens either.

working on a lil something somethin so now i got a modern au AND cowboy au to flesh out lol
i might work on this more cuz i used to have a huge obsession with cowboys and rdr soo :^ idk how im gonna make helios’ gow outfit -> a western one but im figuring it out!!
ALSO A JEDTAVIUS DUO COSPLAY INSPIRED ME TO MAKE THIS AU LMAO IT WAS SO PEAKK

Rise of Hybrid HPC and Quantum Computing in Drug Discovery
HPC and Quantum Computing
Quantinuum and Japan’s RIKEN research organization established the world’s first complete scientific process integrated across a top supercomputer and a trapped-ion quantum computer, advancing science worldwide. This milestone marks the transition from theoretical infrastructure to hybrid quantum–high-performance computing (HPC) in computational biology and materials research.
Overcoming Classical-Quantum Gap
Japan has led classical and quantum investing, but how do you develop cutting-edge technology and demonstrate its integrated use? NEDO commissioned a statewide endeavor to integrate Quantinuum’s Reimei trapped-ion quantum computer and the Fugaku supercomputer to overcome this hurdle.
The scientists used ONIOM, a layered computational framework, to simulate chemical reactions in proteins, one of biochemistry’s most difficult challenges. The “active site” where reactions occur in these systems must be accurate due to delicate electrical effects, but the surrounding environment can be treated more carelessly.
This hybrid paradigm uses the Fugaku supercomputer for baseline electronic structure computations and shape optimization. The most complex electrical interactions at the active site defy classical approximation methods, which Reimei must improve. Tierkreis, Quantinuum’s workflow solution, manages job scheduling and data transfer across architectures.
The Hive: AI-Powered Algorithm Analysis
Hardware integration provides “muscle,” while software developments provide “intellect.” The Hive AI platform is used by Hiverge and Quantinuum to discover algorithms automatically.
The contradictory nature of entanglement and interference makes designing quantum algorithms notoriously difficult for academics. Large Language Models (LLMs) help Hive improve basic algorithmic sketches into “noise-aware” quantum algorithms.
This cooperation produced Hive-ADAPT, a variational quantum algorithm that achieves chemical precision for molecular ground state energies with orders of magnitude less quantum resources than state-of-the-art methods. Dr. David Zsolt Manrique, Quantinuum’s quantum chemistry specialist, noted that the AI reached a domain-expert consensus on concepts like the “MP2” perturbative approach to direct initial circuit parameters, which is usually time-consuming to fine-tune manually.
Strategic Power: NVIDIA Collaboration
Quantinuum’s cooperation with NVIDIA promotes hybrid utility. The NVIDIA Grace Blackwell platform is now targeting advanced AI research and pharma development businesses with Helios, the latest hardware iteration.
This project uses NVIDIA NVQLink, an open architecture for real-time quantum error correction (QEC) decoding. In an industry-first demonstration, an NVIDIA GPU-based decoder in the Helios control engine boosted logical fidelity by over 3%.
With the ADAPT-GQE framework, a transformer-based Generative Quantum AI approach, training data for complex pharmaceutical compounds like imipramine may be generated 234x faster. CUDA-Q lets developers mix quantum and GPU-accelerated classical operations in one workflow.
Path to Fault Tolerance
As the industry pursues fault tolerance, the “holy grail” of quantum computing, quantum Error Correction researchers are making significant progress. Recent developments include “concatenated symplectic double codes,” which create stable and manipulable logical qubits by combining numerous error-correcting code families like the [] Iceberg code.
These algorithms use “SWAP-transversal” gates, which are easy to design in software due to Quantinuum’s all-to-all QCCD architecture. Quantinuum aims to achieve hundreds of logical qubits with a 1×10−8 error rate by 2029.
The Global Transition
The successful Fugaku-Reimei integration provides a blueprint for HPC facilities worldwide. The experiment shows that quantum devices can be integrated into the research infrastructure to boost powerful classical computers, making hybrid compute a reality.
As technology advances, AI-assisted, GPU-accelerated methods will scale to more realistic and industrially essential problems like cybersecurity and materials discovery. Japan is signaling to the research community that integrated, hybrid discovery has begun and isolated quantum testing is ended.
