Amen @Peggynoonannyc! The World Cup is a gift to America on our 250th anniversary, at a time of creeping corrosive cynicism. The beautiful game has allowed us to revel in joy with our fellow North American hosts and the rest of the world. It has offered America a reminder of its goodness and greatness — the nature & fruits of our generous society, the confidence & kindness of our people, and the devotion of a people committed to the revolutionary ideas of life, liberty, & the pursuit of happiness. I think the Founders would be proud and would want a front row seat to the World Cup.
Complex numbers have long seemed essential to #QuantumMechanics — but a paper in @PhysRevLett argues they may not be. By reformulating quantum theory using only real numbers, the authors show it can make the same experimentally-testable predictions: https://t.co/RXjoNDr6ti
Last year, with @Microsoft, we published a breakthrough in logical computing, demonstrating logical qubits that outperformed physical qubits by a factor of 800. This work is now published in @Nature, one of the most highly regarded scientific journals. https://t.co/o4Z33J7fK3
.@RishiSunak you will not owe history an apology. Even though I have strong policy disagreements with you, there is no denying that as the first Indian origin leader of a Western democracy --of Britain no less --you have inspired many others to be proud of their heritage & serve.
The drama at OpenAI shines a light on the power of the industry’s talent, the firm’s unusual structure and the folly of policing technologies using corporate structures. Here’s what should happen next https://t.co/rx64dZykUU 👇
Watershed moment for the integration of quantum-enabled encryption into cyber security for utilities, data & critical infrastructure protection. A new industry standard is set. Kudos @honeywell@QuantinuumQC for pioneering work to deploy #Quantum Origin. Reality of quantum!
We're official! We're vaulting carbon deep underground for permanent #carbonremoval. The highlights:
1) We've spun off from @advantekwms
2) Raised our $8M seed round led by @lowercarbon
3) Sold most of our 2023 tons to @stripe@Shopify via Frontier

Agreed, Chris! Mind-blowing implications if cells can be rebooted and aging reversed. Sinclair’s “Information Theory of Aging” put into practice could revolutionize medicine & will stretch the bounds of bioethics. “That’s a paradigm shift in how to think about aging.”
I’ve been reflecting on my previous career as a VC, and with the benefit of hindsight, I'm realizing that I was a decent investor but could have been a great one.
Here’s the advice I'd give myself if I could go back to 2010 when I was just starting out as a VC 🧵
We’re witnessing a “Crypto Blizzard.” @TheEconomist cover could have been a massive snowstorm. This is a crypto winter & bear market met by massive fraud & failures washing away the speculative exuberance. Only the strong & compliant will survive. The underlying tech is real.
Want to understand why the physics Nobel awarded today is such a big deal?
Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser and Anton Zeilinger were awarded the Nobel prize today for groundbreaking work in quantum technologies (1/?)
BREAKING NEWS:
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2022 #NobelPrize in Physics to Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser and Anton Zeilinger.
Major advance in quantum computing, real-time error correction @QuantinuumQC@cambridgecqc. This accelerates the practical application of quantum computing. Stunning innovation & consistent progress from the best quantum computing company in the world. https://t.co/f9q22HUCvr
One more monday, one more week in #quantumComputing
This week featuring QCentroid and Artificial Brain
Y2Q is the word as the new Y2K. The year where quantum computers break the internet or achieve advantage. Probably with the sa…https://t.co/BaoLiny8eH https://t.co/OIkd1o7Xkw
Climate change is here: "The heat wave still gripping parts of India and Pakistan set all-time monthly records this weekend... At least a billion people suffered through temperatures of 104°F (40°C) or higher, with many seeing highs of 110°F (43°C) and above" @afreedma@axios
