Cluely, a startup that claims to help users “cheat” on things like job interviews and sales calls, has raised a $15 million roughly two months after it raised $5.3 million in seed funding. Read more from @Techcrunch, including about the startup’s co-founders who were suspended from Columbia University:

Building a practical version of this quantum sensor isn’t as difficult as it sounds. The trickiest part seems to be building the diamond assembly, which has the N-V diamond [about the size of a grain of sand and actually not that expensive] potted in clear epoxy along with a loop of copper wire for the microwave antenna, a photodiode and a small fleck of red filter material. The electronics primarily consist of an ADF4531 phase-locked loop RF signal generator and a 40-dB RF amplifier to generate the microwave signals, a green laser diode module and an ESP32 dev board.

All the design files and firmware have been open-sourced, and everything about the build seems quite approachable. The write-up emphasizes Quantum Village’s desire to make this quantum technology’s [Apple II moment], which we heartily endorse. I’ve seen N-V sensors detailed before, but this project might make it easier to play with quantum physics at home.](https://nerdculture.de/system/media_attachments/files/114/721/187/099/322/084/original/4d97f8885b393bb4.jpeg "[ImageSource: Quantum Village]
