In the PointerPodcast we talk about innovation and technology as if we were over a beer. We are Luca, Eugenio and Alessandro. Hi, this is episode 295 of the PointerPodcast. I am Luca and today with me are Eugenio and Alessandro. HI! Hi Luca! How are you? We don't know if they are our synthesized voices or not this time. No, we don't know. In reality I know who records and you are fake and then we will edit everything in this way. Look, the thing that would have been funny... That is, when I listened to the episode afterwards I said go, they could also put my voice and let me find it... that is, I listened to the episode again and I said ah, I would have made a post about it immediately saying you can't... you can't skip an episode and they'll immediately replace you with her. It would have been super funny and the next episode would have been like how I reported my co-hosts for using my voice. Besides, we couldn't, right? Because it's on Eleven Labs, I don't know who's ever used it, but if you want to synthesize a person's voice... Yes, yes. Before proving that that person is you in some way because they make you read a... let's say a sequence of unlikely words for which the computer records you live and then makes sure that it is you and that therefore you can actually synthesize that voice. So they match the voices between what is sent to them as input as mpplay or what is currently coming in from the computer with the microphone, they match, if they coincide then ok, I can go and synthesize them for you. I knew though, that is, ok, Eleven Labs, but there are also many models that do it maybe not with the same quality, but in fact the thing... Now now, I've thought about it now that... what we were saying, I remember that when I registered, I don't remember on the website of some bank, but it was definitely a bank, they told me, eh, register a sample... it was... now now I don't know, I don't remember everything exactly, but this was the story. You had to record, I think, a sample of the voice, so that then when, when... in case you had called the bank's assistance by phone, they would have recognized the voice and you would probably have immediately personalized assistance and everything. I initially said, ah well, let's do it, come on. Then, at the same time, I stopped and said, okay, but right now, I don't think anyone is going to look for my account or try to... but at the same time, it's easy, right? That someone can... I mean, we have all the hours and hours of public recordings, online, that way, it's quick, right? To take them and then pretend to be one of us or at least any... any person who has an online voice. I repeat, I don't... I don't think anyone would start doing it with us, but... with someone who is perhaps more famous, you... you... you could do it and you could try. But in reality, in my opinion, we could instead be the perfect target, because if someone is famous and has a lot of money, it becomes... you're in the spotlight, instead you have to take people with the... let's say... we are just the perfect target. Ah, saying that we were famous and therefore we are not... we are on the other side, understand? We're on the other side. And so, before starting the episode, as usual, I remind you that you can stay in touch with the Pointer Podcast via the Pointer Chat, find the link in the episode, then if you want to make us really happy, you can leave us reviews, whether on Apple Podcasts or on Spotify, and... or even leave us some stars, they make us go up in... in the ranking, which still makes us known to more people, so it's a positive thing. Then if you have people who perhaps you think might be interested in what we say on the podcast, let us... let them know about the Pointer Podcast, in short. probably we don't do it enough, but we are particularly good at this, we should perhaps improve a little, but oh well, after 295 episodes we still have a little to learn, perhaps, at least from this point of view. And before diving into the episode, a very small piece of news, because if for some reason you are interested in using Plex, know that from July 1st the price of the Plex Lifetime Pass will go from around 220-225 euros to 750 dollars, therefore a fairly significant increase for a subscription which theoretically is a subscription that should last for a lifetime. Now we took it, for example, we bought it with Eugenio a couple of months ago, maybe it was March, and now let's see if it will actually last for a lifetime, because we paid around 220. What can I say, however, is it unbalanced compared to the monthly or annual subscription? In fact, when you found the Lifetime you told me the price, we said let's do it right away. And they actually noticed it too. But in fact in my opinion the question was the one that probably everyone was saying but why do I have to pay 150 euros a year when Lifetime, that is, there are people who bought Lifetime years ago when it cost less than 100 euros and still use it today. Now I know about the idea that at some point they will say yes, but at some point we ask you for 50 euros more to really do it Lifetime. But there has been a change and clearly this is a way to force you into an annual subscription instead of a Lifetime one. Yes, practically yes. Ok, this was just something like that. If you are interested in Plex, then this is the right time before July 1st. We have no percentages on the purchase, so go ahead. Thank you. Thank you. I'm saying something completely crazy. Oh, no. So. Perhaps the annual purchase of Obsidian should be considered. So, I said it randomly. And the motivation... Yes, exactly. There's a bit of confusion in all this. It came to me like this on my feet. There is. Because if you pay Obsidian annually you can have the possibility of synchronization on multiple devices. And I saw that Obsidian has a bunch of plugins. Stuff for which you can, for example, make a to-do list, you can in theory begin to store the relevant messages that arrive during the day by classifying them. I mean, sorry, I mean this. I got into that stuff that I say, ah, I would like to say... There's the second brain stuff too, that stuff that I've always avoided. But if I succeeded, if I unlocked myself and said, ok, I pay 149 euros per year for Obsidian. There are 10 volts, but there are few gigabytes associated. Alright. Then we get into it and discuss it. But if I managed to do this I could get rid of an example of a to-do list, which I love. But maybe there's no need for that anymore, because he supported me on Obsidian. I do not know. But in fact, wait, take us into the white rabbit trap. Meanwhile, I have never used Obsidian, which is funny because everyone talks about Obsidian. So if you can quickly explain to us that it's... And then... Because like... Because in my head it's stuff for visualization of stuff. Because if it was also something for, I don't know, hosting or something like that, I'd say cool. Because maybe you can put all that stuff on a server and then you can do stuff with it. But I don't know what it is. So, basically it's an application that you can go and write markdowns to organize, let's say, your information in volts. So you have a volt that could be a thematic volt. For example, once on the topic of, I don't know, machine learning. The other is my personal finance. And each of those collects markdowns that track information that maybe you want to keep there and find interesting. The particular thing is that you can create hyperlinks between documents, between markdown. And this stuff here can then be visualized through a graph. And you see the dependencies of the concepts between them. Handsome. Was there an MCP per volt? Yes. Like, I think, the other year, when it was getting... Exactly. When we were doing the agent stuff in the beginning, the MCP was already there. And it was nice that when you started throwing information at people, this graph grew on its own. And you can do several things with it. Then there are a lot of plugins. The problem is that this one, despite the perception of being a graph, in reality does not have all the properties of the graph, or a real data structure that you are going to manipulate, such as a knowledge base. That is, you can use it as a knowledge base, but the name knowledge base actually represents a data structure, where there is a graph with nodes, which are concepts, connected to each other with edges, which have a certain meaning on the edge, which points towards another node. But it is a slightly higher level of abstraction, despite being graphically represented as a graph. I probably explained myself very poorly. No, no, no, of course. For example, you can't embed it, I think. Maybe there's some plugin that can do it, but you could put embeddings in there, and then you actually have stuff, you could zoom in on a radius in there. Okay. And wait, the Vault, you have hosting so they? It's local. You can have it local, but if you want to have it synchronized online, you pay the subscription. Eh, because... Ok, wait, I'll tell you what's in my head and you tell me you're basically adding a whistle. Like... Exactly. No, no, it's actually cool. Like, if I guess, I pay for the subscription, I have the devices synced, I have an application on my phone, I think there will be, I guess. I have the stuff on my desktop. If I then wanted, for example, there is a... A GitHub Action that adds a markdown directly to me every time something happens, perhaps on a work repo, and puts it on a specific Vault, can this stuff do it? Certain. Ale, but do you have the Obsidian Lifetime? Eh, in fact when I put Lifetime I was there saying, shit, but maybe there's Lifetime too. Actually you can also do it... I mean, you can also use synchronization... I mean, you can synchronize it too, for example, with GitHub, or I think with other systems... There was the da G-Git. ...deadly. I mean, in the end they're just files. The most basic thing you can do, then clearly you don't have synchronization with the mobile, but the simplest thing you can do is simply... I know, do the markdown, do a repo, every time you have to remember to... Look, because... In fact, in my head you can do the same thing with a bucket where you throw some markdowns in it, do an MCP and retrieve the information from there, right? But in my opinion, this one resolves some things which are, for example, yes, ok, everything is fine, but if I have to... Somehow I have to put the files in this bucket. And as long as I'm immersed in that project I'll be super precise, I'll put everything into it, but when I'm out and about and now I write things in Notion or in the notes on my phone, then that stuff is lost forever, but if you have the application and you can edit a markdown directly from the app on your phone, it's probably not worth the money you spend for the monthly subscription, but using the bucket or vault that they have will do the trick for you, in my opinion. Let's say there is a discussion underlying all this, that is... what... So, okay, those who listen to the podcast are not seeing, but I shared what I did on Obsidian and here the thing is that in reality I only use this as a storage for these notes, I never actually wrote them, I have Hermes, so the people who run on the Mac locally, I send him the links and tell him save them on the wiki, in the wiki and he takes the link, parses the page, understands more or less which section to put the link in, there various tags and then also created this graph which are simply all connected to an index and then those which have a minimum of topics in common, let's say, are connected to each other. so you see, here for example at the bottom you also see this other talk and it's connected. Now, in reality I don't know, that is, in this specific case I don't know how much I also need the mobile view, also because it's not something I would do if I had to do it by hand, simply explaining it because there are people who do it for me, otherwise I probably wouldn't do it, right? I mean, I wouldn't go and do it by hand, take the file, put it there, write something, of course, someone did it before the agents, but I've never done it, no, I've never done it either, but it's something that in my opinion doesn't work because this is something that doesn't have a cost for me in the sense that I take it and simply put a link, he does everything and adds it, but there isn't a cost for me except for the fact that it runs on a model or in local or not, right now it's DeepSeek for the cost low that he has but apart from that it's not a he's back ah no it's yours ok you didn't do this by hand no I had him create this when I had the documents but the stuff you were saying about creating links between them and in my opinion that's where I gave him some documents let's say for a tender which were a lot of documents I was trying to make them I wanted him to find links between the documents because there are some but I had the perception that he finds some links but he doesn't find others and in my opinion it's because I told Claude to insert them but without being too careful to look for the connections between the various documents that he believes that this is a super mega expensive activity but maybe this is if you no longer have experience in this direction I'm curious to have feedback because I'm curious no I don't have feedback on this I'll add one thing to what Luca was saying because I know I agree that for the type of use of nefaitu there's no point maybe doing something by hand in my opinion there's a whole other section of use cases which instead they are simply interesting, the shopping list, in the sense that it's really the first stupid example that came to mind but when you make the shopping list we were talking about it a few episodes ago and then you want to understand what to do with it you don't have to take a photo of what's in the fridge or open the fridge and see what's inside you fuck the MCP with your markdown inside with the shopping list that you wrote some time before and say I'm in the fridge, get what's in the fridge and tell me what I can do this evening and this is the first thing that comes to mind but I have a list of some comics that I'm missing to buy random issues of some things and to catch them every time it's a bit of a frenzy, in short I don't keep them updated all the stuff that's there is nice so nothing thanks for adding me a subscription I recommend to those I already have and then I'll also get to this thing in co-work with Claude let's say you can connect it you can take some routines and connect it perhaps to high next to gmail and there was this crazy guy who made him classify the contents of the emails every day like after 7 in the evening after 9 in the evening when you can you don't use Claude so you go to use the tokens without consuming when you really need them of course and he goes to classify them and at that point if it was spam spam if there was interesting stuff for the next day he would also give you a potential response to that email but he would put it in draft and then the question there is the step to take and classify the email and throw it into an obsidian vault where it begins to catalog all the information all the communications that also take place in the workplace not only there it probably explodes I would not use obsidian because the retrieval of information is not effective when the number of data increases significantly but if one were to organize it as grafrag or whatever it becomes everything becomes much more naughty maybe even temporal grafrag I shoot so very nice it scares me from the excesses of the email but it is clearly a resistance that I still have and which I know that soon we will give up on reading only in my opinion maybe definitely on reading only but the nice thing could be to show him the calendar because maybe that way he can give you a summary at the beginning of the day of what you have to do I would do it too that is cool but at that point yes at that point you really have access to everything there is a nice newspaper report I was yes beautiful and this goes no no please please no no I was asking I don't know if what it was if we still wanted to discuss this or if we have other topics the last thing didn't bother me but because I just started yesterday doing this stuff here but because I had been completely bombarded by these AI influencers on Instagram that is influencers who talk about AI not and kept telling me about this nice second brain thing that I disgusted it I didn't want to do it because I understood I felt like it was bullshit because it's visually beautiful but it doesn't give you the output that you would actually expect to have and this thing is partially true I'm always convinced I don't think that Obsidian is the solution you need a layer to be able to get to grips with this information more so by doing a semantic search that there is also some plug in about it but it's clear that that stuff over there let's say if one organizes it a little better we can really also have a type of efficiency to use it as effectively a second brain that is someone who is certainly skilled who has already done this stuff clearly yes yes yes I'm always left with the doubt of what it is I do all these things that I'm saving in the sense that they will remain there and they will be a nice thing that I did but in the end well it's that at least you can do something with them once upon a time we saved stuff to keep it there and never look at it here again at least I'll do the same thing with these probably well but not in the sense that if you then slap him in Claude and you need to know something he'll maybe get those things for you and make connections to things that is I don't know it's nice I'll do it but I don't think they'll be useful here in the end but consider that Claude's memorization part helps me a lot because every now and then it's a little too invasive in other cases but it makes me connections between different chats which I say ah gosh this is a good point and therefore Ibo would expect me that there's the same stuff over there too in my opinion that I feel the lack because I don't use memorization but I feel that instead on some things it could help me in my opinion this thing could solve that problem there is the information where you need it and in any case I think that if someone listened to the bit in which Luca explained how he uses the local agent how he saves the information we will have a pocket that loses 30% of its value if he hasn't already closed it ah well they closed a while ago it makes a lot of sense as I think the one who put the links in the bio will close the site on social media I believe because in the last 10 days I have seen the 15 different open sources released by people ah link 3 link 3 of course I believe that is those there I saw a post on linkedin then let's move on to the pointer pics because the episode is over but I saw a post on linkedin a guy who would have done it alone and below people commented with the screenshots of the financing rounds he had taken link 3 over the years he had raised an embarrassing amount of money who knows for what and so on the one hand I am happy that this guy of companies happy no bad to say but that companies that have taken money we don't know why they are now closing and the investors have put the money into it maybe of course if it were called link 3 point to today they would still take the money maybe they would take it more okay effects I'll throw this stuff away also then we really move forward in a digital world where copying has now completely become easy for all people more or less standard I would say it's almost the standard then let's say copying super mega complex services perhaps the only thing left that can't be copied it's the one that's on the blockchain so done the crazy connection we don't have the blockchain in the lineup so a link that's not with its but then what do we want to talk about what's in the lineup then I'd go to Ale go to May go then as some of you know Microsoft has released this other bomb and when Microsoft drops bombs on quantum computing social media is trembling, Majorana 2 has just been released, that is, the second version of their topological quantum processor for those who want to better understand what Majorana quasi particles are, we won't go into detail here, but Majorana quasi particles are essentially physical objects on which Microsoft creates qubits to then be able to carry out computation as in other quantum technologies there are those with superconductors, those with neutral atoms, trapped ions and then there is this one from Microsoft which are topological qubits now there is a episode which I don't remember where we explored what it was let's say this revolution in the research trend on Microsoft's quantum computers in case you go you will find it and among other things I had also studied what these Majorana particles were at a very high level what is the point in this whole story the claim was that a certain characteristic of the processor has been made to a certain extent one per thousand compared to the previous version this per thousand is related to the life time of a qubit so as long as the qubit manages to maintain the significant information before losing it because as I talked about it in other episodes, qubits are extremely fragile and after a few seconds in the best of cases, if not even less, the qubit loses this information and must be reset from scratch so you understand if the qubit carries data with it and after a few seconds it loses it this is a big problem because it also defines the maximum number of operations you can do on it given the speed of a certain quantum operation so let's say Microsoft has said that it has managed to significantly increase the life time of a qubit in some cases depending on a particular feature he managed to get up to about 20 seconds which is incredible stuff and the gates have not yet been implemented what do I mean then from the point of view let's say theoretical I read a few let's say opinion lines because I know absolutely nothing from a physical point of view about their implementation in detail however Microsoft in the past has made quite important claims even in rather important journals with respect to their revolution in their developments on their quantum processor in some cases these scientific articles have also been withdrawn so let's say when Microsoft drops these bombs on their quantum processing unit everyone takes them a bit with a grain of salt and so has also been done with this version mainly because although this result of having spread within their architecture the coherence time of a qubit therefore the life of a qubit potentially up to 20 seconds the real problem is that the data the experiments have not been made public they cannot be reproduced by others at this moment but above all they lack the possibility of carrying out operations on this qubit of theirs so today it exists let's say they have implemented this qubit it would seem topological because it shows characteristics let's say that we would expect from a qubit implemented using these quasi majorana particles but we don't know if there are actually any majorana particles majorana below we are only observing the effects that are consistent with that type of particle that has never been identified and therefore the point is that the qubit potentially exists presents the characteristics but as long as the qubit is not able to carry out operations on it then apply gates to it and see how the state evolves let's say it is a qubit that you do nothing with it and this is the case of Microsoft this to conclude let's say the question by saying that let's say there are always many doubts about their qubit production technique but certainly there is in fact that in this physical result well whoever has produced a qubit that cannot yet be manipulated by gates still has a co state erence a very long state of life is physically very very interesting stuff so let's wait for what let's wait for the future and not too far ahead because after publishing the announcement of Majorana 2 they said that since they have reset they have declared that at this point the year in which we will have scalable quantum computers therefore quantum computers where it is easy to add the number of qubits inside them is no longer 2033 but it is 2029 so let's say according to them in three years we will have scalable quantum computers it is true and false I don't know let's say it's all stuff that if we also look at previous years these let's say milestones where within this year we will obtain that in fact they have collected the characteristics of the behavior of the various materials to understand which material would have allowed for certain increases in performance, in short they have defined their development environment and their objective and have used the agents to produce new hypotheses test the hypotheses launch the experiments and launch the simulations to understand what the implementation direction of the creation of the quantum processor was therefore a sort of co-design with the agents ok and this I would add that then there is for those who perhaps let's say are passionate about quantum I don't know is there any physicist who listens to us but it would be very fun to do this experiment keyskit has released ok keyskit is the software is the framework for developing quantum circuits algorithms qu antistici has also released another framework called they have changed its name but originally it was certainly keyskit metal or rather a framework that allows you to develop and let's say develop quantum processors a sort of CAD of quantum processors so the question I ask myself is given that we have this harness we have this tool which clearly encapsulates a sort of let's put it let's put it simply a sort of digital twin of the characteristics with which you can go to develop a quantum processor perhaps then one could really put an agent like Claude behind it and see what he can do by exploiting this framework of keyskit metal to perhaps produce some interesting hardware results maybe if someone says I want to create the quantum processor with these characteristics because the qubits instead of being arranged as a grid want to be arranged in a star for any reason because perhaps they never run on a star shape your specific algorithm could be done and I find it interesting on the part of the agents they have not given any other news or information regarding that I know which ones were used if there was something very specific it's not look I read their announcement but let's say that they didn't really go into detail I don't doubt that if maybe if you dig maybe you can also find something in more detail on this aspect the main problem is that the news of the launch of this new computer let's say this new quantum processor in my opinion has been a bit overtaken by the fact that they used AI to build it that is the news has been twisted around a bit and nothing I think it was clearly very much wanted stuff they have perhaps now more one than the other but two topics that there is enough hype around these topics so in a single piece of news and in a single press release they have let's say brought they have increased the hype for both regarding the q's speech instead uantum how much do you think is just hype or in any case something more commercial and more how much is it something serious because also seeing for example the episode we had made was in March 2025 the previous one in just over a year there has been an increase important improvement at the same time I wonder about the various competitors we have talked about over time they are following different strategies or they are also doing research on this type of architecture excellent question Microsoft is the only one that is doing at least that those who use among the best known explicit research on creating quantum processors with this type of technology let's say that a colleague of mine said Microsoft entered the race on quantum computers late so the only way to be able to overtake the others and get a jump ahead of everyone is to increase the stakes and therefore make a very high risk investment trying to develop this technology because if they succeed everyone will pass and if they don't succeed peace of mind but in the meantime let's say they are the only ones to cover that type of part of technological development with that type of specific architecture the other companies i.e. Microsoft is having difficulty in having a single qubit with this technology but if it really had it at a certain point it would be an extremely interesting result the other companies now have up to a thousand qubits if I'm not mistaken then I lost track of the evolution of the number of physical qubits that are implemented on the largest chitura in terms of number of qubits but you understand that there is already a big difference between the two to give a further detail I searched for a moment and for the agent part they used this service called Microsoft Discovery which is their service which it says speed up the searches the search on that is using agents you have and from what I see from the site in short from what I understand it is in preview and it works i.e. they run on Azure these agents do not say and nothing about or at least I haven't found anything about what the models behind it are but I imagine that by running on Azure they will give you what you want i.e. you pay and they will be happy to provide you with anything you want I imagine yes yes yes yes it is interesting at least every now and then we also talk about something that is not just AI even if in reality we have also included the AI part here also on the Quantum part so I don't know if Eugenio is there any other question in the meantime no why else since we are already at 37 minutes of recording maybe maybe I would keep the news or some things on the next episode and maybe we'll close with something quicker like the part that is I there is a very quick thing about a small a small thing that I discovered on Mac OS a few days ago just if we want if we want to close with these let's ask with these and keep the next ones for at least we already have what to talk about in the next episode nothing then practically it happened to me that by searching that is doing whether or not I used Spotlight or Alfred I was looking for the name of a folder that I wanted to find or of a file that I wanted to find on the Mac OS if usually it's very fast you search for something and immediately the closest match to what you were looking for comes up now it's been a while since this search actually became very slow this search very slow this search and I didn't understand why honestly at a certain point I said okay but maybe it will be Alfred because initially I was using Alfred myself then then I said let's try with Spotlight Spotlight same thing took forever but the thing I noticed with Spotlight was that as I started to write a bar appeared saying indexing in progress then in in reality this indexing was something that was always planted there in the bar so I didn't see that it didn't seem to be going forward and so I said okay but I should have left Spotlight open but for a long time to let it finish or ure to find an alternative solution that would re-index everything that was on the Mac by searching I found that there is a solution that is not exactly intuitive but it allows you to re-index everything that is on the Mac in terms of files in such a way that then both Spotlight and other apps like Alfred or Raycast I imagine that they are all based more or less on the same system are able to find the files that they could not find before and it is done in this way you have to go through the system preferences and there is the Spotlight tab now I don't know about the latest version of Mac OS I'm on sequoia while the last one was a venture well it's not a venture anyway the last one the bad one is the one that I didn't install from OE sorry but I think the procedure is more or less similar so Spotlight at the bottom there is a button which is Search Privacy and you click the plus button and add the folder just Macintosh HD you add it there and at that point it tells you do you want to remove this folder from the Spotlight search it looks like intuitive account you tell me yes wait a few seconds about 30 seconds remove it again then there is the minus button to remove this folder at that point click Done then finish and at that point the reindexing of all the files starts but it is hidden inside the settings and therefore you don't have to leave Spotlight open for hours now it's not like in the end it tells you I've done it now everything works again but I've noticed that now if I open Spotlight and search for something besides the fact that it finds it practically immediately it's not even there anymore the bar where it said indexing in progress so I imagine that something has actually done is not something that is needed every day but if for some reason Spotlight or similar apps become slow potentially this could be a solution but this to search for files to search for files yes folders files in general so it's as if a certain thing on the Mac wasn't more capable of indexing the stuff and he needed external help that is or if for some reason he lost something yes exactly that is he lost the indexing of these files he had lost it he was practically no longer able to search for them or in any case he searched for them he found them but it took a really long time ok curious I don't know what the reason is honestly maybe if it was simply lost he must have had some index something to search for I don't know and it probably no longer worked well if it was perhaps corrupted or something had changed at the file level something had changed which perhaps will not he had updated it more, I don't know what could have happened, honestly, it doesn't fit, I remember that it happened to me some time ago with Spotlight, I remember that when I switched to Raycast, however, this problem was perhaps reindexing it, in my opinion Raycast had reindexed everything so I simply labeled Spotlight as fine but it doesn't work and instead maybe it was an indexing problem, yes here, that is, I believe that the underlying indexing is perhaps the same because then it has now disappeared, both from Spotlight and this problem but also on Alfred it is very faster so I imagine that there is a basic index and then both draw from the probably cool one good to know ok then if you have nothing else to talk about we can close this week's episode here and we'll meet up with the next episode in a week in which we'll talk about what we have left out of today's episode probably if something so big doesn't happen that absolutely needs to be mentioned in the episode if Microsoft doesn't announce a new update of and then we also have a lot of pointerpix that we've been carrying around for a few
