After some 7 months of being ‘closed’ to new entrants, Garmin has re-opened and revamped the Garmin Connect API developer program, focused specifically on 3rd-party platforms that want to receive data files from Garmin devices via Garmin Connect, or send certain types of data to Garmin devices. Things like receiving your completed activities/workouts, sending routes/courses or structured workouts to Garmin devices, receiving general health/wellness data, and so on. All of these leverage the Garmin Connect API today, and have for many years.

Before we get into the details of the new program, Garmin closed it to new applications back in March due to an overwhelming number of inbound applications. With the rise of AI-generated apps, Garmin went from a handful of (mostly legit) applications each week to a tsunami of new AI vibe-coded applications each day. Fun fact: Less than half of all applications that were requesting access even bothered to use them, once granted.

Quantum Annealers Show Full Magnetic Reversal In Antiferromagnets - Quantum Zeitgeist

Researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory have observed full saturation and reversal of the hysteresis curve in antiferromagnetic models using programmable quantum annealers. This finding challenges expectations, as antiferromagnets typically resist magnetization, making complete reversal an unusual result. The team detected Barkhausen-like noise, typically associated with ferromagnetic materials, alongside emergent magnetic domains created by quantum fluctuations. These fluctuations mediate magnetic memory within the antiferromagnets, demonstrating a direct link between quantum effects and a material property. The team implemented a sampling-based magnetic hysteresis protocol on these processors to investigate magnetic memory within antiferromagnetic models, revealing unexpected results about how these materials respond to external fields. This approach allows for emulation of magnetic hysteresis experiments, offering a new avenue for studying complex magnetic phenomena.
