☆ Why Japan's 'shunto' wage hikes may not bring cheer to over 80% of its workers
  + stars: | 2024-04-03 | by ( Lim Hui Jie | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +1 min
Akihiko Matsuura, president of UA Zensen, center, raises his fist with members of the union during a rally for the annual wage negotiations in Tokyo, Japan, on Thursday, March 7, 2024. But will the "shunto" hikes really work for its legions of salarymen? However, headline inflation, which has been above the Bank of Japan's 2% target since April 2022, hits the entire population. This means that the generous pay raise negotiated by the unions leave out almost 84% of Japan's workforce. The recent wage negotiations are also likely to benefit mostly workers in large Japanese companies, while employees at small and medium enterprises might have to face rising prices without a commensurate hike to their salaries.

☆ Intel releases software platform for quantum computing developers
  + stars: | 2023-02-28 | by ( Jane Lanhee Lee | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
The platform, called Intel Quantum SDK, would for now allow those algorithms to run on a simulated quantum computing system, said Anne Matsuura, Intel Labs' head of quantum applications and architecture. Quantum computing is based on quantum physics and in theory can perform calculations quicker than conventional computers. Matsuura said developers can use the long-established programming language C++ to build quantum algorithms, making it more accessible for people without quantum computing expertise. "The Intel Quantum SDK helps programmers get ready for future large-scale commercial quantum computers," Matsuura said in a statement. Qubits, or quantum bits, are the basic unit of quantum computing.
