22 June 2025 - embezzlement

Today I read "For embezzlement of entanglement to be possible, the resource state needs to be highly entangled." Let's unpack that. The resource state is obviously Iran, which is highly entangled. To "embezzle" entanglement means to take some for yourself without using up the entanglement at the source. That's exactly what Israel, the U.S., and Europe are each doing. Wow, physics happens almost in real time!
