Delighted to see our paper on integrated control of spin qubits. Who knew you could put 100,000 transistors right next to fragile qubits at -273 degrees C, no problem!

@michael_nielsen 💯 espresso machines. If you pay good money but not top of the line, you’ll be disappointed, and it will break. The money is worth it to enjoy and forget about the problem for 20 years.
@dangaristo Accessing tier 1 semicon foundry capabilities is not a barrier today to making few qubits but likely critical for scale up of all qubit approaches. Many partnerships now with T1 foundries across quantum community.
@dangaristo Increasingly adv. semi fab and materials are becoming important enablers. Not just for qubits at scale but also for adv packaging and control systems, detectors, for example.
"The reality is we are seeing our international rivals outpace us in the race that matters the most when it comes to research: who is closing the funding gap the fastest." said @DrEmmaLJohnston AO FAA FTSE.

@StevenTouzard Having a “Technical earth” independent of protective ground can be useful when there is a lot of unbalanced return current on PG. If not careful though you can create a ground loop the size of the building..
@StevenTouzard Dissipative flooring prob helps not shock your sensitive preamps, etc, but should not be the difference between life and death of your qubits. Some dissipative flooring does not recover from LN2 spills.
