Today we unveiled our latest quantum chip, Willow. But how does quantum computing work? What even is a qubit? Our @GoogleQuantumAI team is here to teach you the basics — and give you a tour of their lab ↓ goo.gle/3ZJq7QN

Since everyone is in Barcellona having a great time and my FOMO is at level high, and since my online presence is very limited these days, I decided to make a comeback!!
I realized I had not shared this picture, taken during IAFSS23 in Japan. With so many amazing people 😍

As a scientist, I've learnt a lot about facade fires since 2015 with Matt, Ben and Francesca of Hazelab (even more learning after 2017 for tragic reasons). After years of research, time has arrived for facade safety to be part my exam of fire dynamics. I wrote this ACM question:

We attended this converted e-bike fire in #ShepherdsBush. Thankfully no one was hurt.
E-bikes are London's fastest-growing fire risk and these fires can be ferocious - it's vital to stay well away and call 999 📞🚲🔥

How to talk about battery safety without talking about fire?
My sketch has humorous take but it is based on 11 years of working at the interface between battery technology and fire science.

Hello! I’m back after over a year since my last tweet. If you were wondering what happened to me… I have been growing a little human!
This guy turned my life upside down and I HAD to take a break from society. But now I’m ready - it feels good to be back 😍

I wonder what it will take for these Indonesian fires to get mass media attention? Thousands of fires, smoke plumes the size of France, tens of millions exposed to hazardous smoke, & the loss of crucial carbon stores. The Tenerife fires have had more coverage!
