Vous voici dans le 66ième épisode de Quantum, le podcast francophone de l’actualité quantique. Nous reprenons le cours des événements depuis notre épisode spécial de mi-décembre sur Google Willow. Je suis toujours avec Fanny Bouton, ci-devant quantum lead chez OVHcloud.
Dans cet épisode, nous revenons sur divers événements comme la Q2B de Santa Clara, le quantique au CES de Las Vegas, le workshop de la Quantum Energy Initiative à Grenoble, la conférence QT4HEP du CERN et le European Quantum Software Workshop.
Côté acteurs, nous avons des news sur Alice&Bob, Quobly, Welinq, Qubit Pharmaceuticals, le CNRS, Xanadu, Google, QuEra, Quantum Brilliance, IBM, et puis quelques distractions du côté du bullshit quantique qui est vraiment mis à toutes les sauces de manière très créative en ce moment.

This is my late and last post covering Leweb 2009. Like every other year (2006, 2007, 2008), I will make a roundup of the presenting startups in the conference.
This year, startups didn’t have to pay to present, like in previous years. As a result, the competition seemed opened to more early stage companies and it did show. Only two had already got some VC funding and less than half had significant business angel back-up. There were fewer startups presenting: 16 instead of 30 last year.
The selection included many ecommerce tools, various social network tools, and other stuff. Many of these had some pieces of “real time web”, mostly through connecting somewhat with Twitter and the likes. In the social networking space, most of the innovations are about integrating the various social networking platforms around. Many many startups want to play this game, but only a few may survive.

Since 2006, I’m playing the photoreporter role at Leweb, on top of blogging and networking.
This year, I took with me my two Canon reflex cameras (DSLR) with a wide angle lense and a zoom lense. Every year, I learn the way to improve my shootings. This year, I got very nice results with using a mix of high ISO sensors (5D II), wide apperture lenses (2.8), fast speed (1/400s) and with caring about good focusing. My pictures are not retouched at all beyond basic RAW files processing using Adobe Lightroom, with some color balance and lighting adjustments. Despite the gear, I’m NOT a professional photographer. It’s just a hobby!
