Lesson 030: Resource estimation stubs
Focus
Bias toward repeatable experiment notebooks: circuits, mitigation settings, timestamps. Token Resource estimation stubs:30 keeps neighbouring lessons differentiable.
Key ideas
- Thread: Resource estimation stubs · drill v10 · spin
426332. - Habit: pair each job with shot budget, mitigation profile, and a calibration fingerprint you could paste.
- Guardrail: write one line about where classical cost dominated the timeline.

H_SUBSPACE_TAG: VS-30
ANSATZ_BLOCKS: repetitions R=3
CLASSICAL_OPTIM: L-BFGS-B
CONVERGENCE_GUARD: plateau_epochs > 3 ⇒ widen shot budget memo
ENERGY_CI: tracked alongside parameter shift noise
Practice
