If you come from the computing side and want to tangentially back into quantum mechanics from the quantum computing side, I would highly recommend Andy Matuschak and Michael Nielsen&amp;#x27;s highly approachable intro to quantum computing which goes into surprising depth - https://quantum.country/qcvc Once you feel like you have a good grasp, just dive into the deep end (why not?) with a pictorial survey of the geometry of quantum states - https://arxiv.org/pdf/1901.06688.pdf Then see where the gaps are and decide if it&amp;#x27;s worth digging…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1901.06688/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
