Lesson 024: Resource estimation stubs
Focus
Treat placeholders as mandatory—rename qubit lines and budget shots immediately. Token Resource estimation stubs:24 keeps neighbouring lessons differentiable.
Key ideas
- Thread: Resource estimation stubs · drill v4 · spin
444467. - 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.
