James Hardiman from @DCVC . Didn’t invest but told us we needed more energy in our pitch (by US standards) & our first milestone needed to be 2x sooner. Difficult message, but he said it nicely, like he cared about our success. Changed the company over night.

I do not want any VCs to respond to this.

Founders only, which investor provided the single best founder experience for you that either invested or did not invest, as an angel or VC, in Europe?

Who was it? What made the experience good?

@BitcoinGustavo @pbrody Interesting paper, but pretty far from a breakthrough. They claim the need to be able to operate a quantum computer through 10,000 gates which is waaay beyond what is possible today. Also questions over the scalability of the quantum algorithm- known as QAOA they implement.

Entering the crazy world of quantum physics. Probably the most requested show to make is people asking whether quantum computing is a threat to #bitcoin.

I had @richard_murray6 come on to explain this all to me.

[Richard Murray @richard_murray6]

So happy to see this (:

The MoD bought a quantum computer from British firm ORCA computing - but what can it actually be used for? I tried to find out. https://t.co/41tOnmhbqR

Have you ever been looking for a job? Have you ever written a CV?
Do you think you'll need to do this at some point in future?
I got you covered!
Here's my new blogpost on the topic of writing CVs, with the focus on QC jobs:

@benjaderberg @BBCNews @ruskin147 @ComputingOrca Yes indeed. It's surprising really that what you say goes into the BBC sausage machine and you have no way of knowing what will come out the other end! I think 'smallest' means more to the average reader.

[Richard Murray @richard_murray6]

@benjaderberg @BBCNews @ruskin147 Actually that didn't come from us at @ComputingOrca. We were chuffed with the comparison to the thermostat.

An honour to have hosted @BBCRoryCJ and fantastic to be showcased alongside @rigetti talking about @innovateuk and the vibrant uk tech sector.

[Rory Cellan-Jones @ruskin147]

Fascinating week meeting execs from two very different quantum firms, Mandy Birch of America’s @Rigetti and @richard_murray6 from London startup @computingORCA

[Richard Murray @richard_murray6]

@ruskin147 @rigetti @ComputingOrca The pleasure was all mine! Thank you for your dedication showcasing the UK tech sector!
