Quantum AI Basic — 170: budget shots against calibration drift on `Two-qubit basis and CNOT scaffolding` — memo `527456 [170]` — Learn

Lesson 170: Two-qubit basis and CNOT scaffolding

Focus

Bias toward repeatable experiment notebooks: circuits, mitigation settings, timestamps. Token Two-qubit basis and CNOT scaffolding:170 keeps neighbouring lessons differentiable.

Key ideas

Thread: Two-qubit basis and CNOT scaffolding · drill v10 · spin 577234.
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.
