84 Rigetti qubits on @awscloud!

Congrats to @rigetti's talented scientists and fabrication experts--it's exciting to witness the speed of innovation when new ideas can be quickly tried and iterated in the fab! globenewswire.com/news-release/2…

Our @rigetti CEO Subodh Kulkarni telling the #QuantumComputing story at #SEMICONWest

Haven't posted for a while; resurfacing here with excitement to share that I've joined @rigetti and the world of quantum computing. Wrapping an energizing first two weeks that included attendance @QuantumTech_ , meetings with customers and partners, and a firehose of learnings

Put the #Rivian to work today

Somehow I hadn't stumbled into this before, but this is so cool in so many ways youtube.com/watch?v=GC3Kry…

@dcreemer 😀good catch--it's actually a JavaOne backpack...traveling super light, and it was the right tool for the job

My favorite part of a random late Sunday evening dinner in Saint-Germain-des-Prés

...sans femme ce soir, malheureusement...

The moon came out nicely this evening for the James Bond shot at our 25 year Insead b-school reunion at Chateau de Fontainebleau

@sogrady @mikeolson Ok so is it Pliny the Great Great Great Grandfather, or what?

@mikeolson you should be here, man

"you should check out the beers that just got dropped off." "where are they?" "in the garage." "i'm going to go check them out." "cool." [distantly] "HOLY SHIT."

Contemplating 25 years post big school stuff, the biggest question is not 'did I succeed' (I did ok, more to come) but, how do I most usefully translate/transfer/parlay this to my 17yr old son's best possible future.

@pmddomingos Because not doing so is boring

Why do we ask why?

#United Polaris SFO to Paris, not bad on the dinner course, en route to @INSEAD 25yr reunion, can't help but put #Rush #BigMoney on the 'phones

sort of fell off media while traveling but gathered some pics from the trip facebook.com/media/set/?set… facebook.com/media/set/?set…

Sunday road trip to find some less-crowded point breaks

Been working the Carrizalillo (n.b. tongue gymnastics to say like a local) break these first two days. 8-10' today. Big and heavy, but not crazy steep. Left some skin on the rocks to feed the fish. Dawn patrol tomorrow...

Trying chicatanas (ants) with the mezcal this evening

First mezcal con chapulinas (crickets) to get the trip off on the right foot

Getting excited about Mexico/Puerto Escondido next week, but I may be biting off a bit more than I can chew...
