It's Lets Talk Tech Thursday ...day. This week: why Oracle are in the news (and why you should be nervous). Also, Meta and YouTube have been fined, the White House have an app, and the UK government, MoD and train network have come together to test quantum navigation.
If any of that sounds interesting, have a read: https://buttondown.com/willrc/archive/lets-talk-tech-thursday-24/

this seems nothing short of being pretty damn amazeballs 😮

La huitième mission du X-37B, la navette mystérieuse des États-Unis, approche. Un envol a été confirmé pour août 2025, avec de nouveaux tests prévus à cette occasion. Un nouvel envol de la navette secrète des États-Unis se prépare. Le X-37B, engin initialement développé par la Nasa, construit par Boeing et récupéré
Plot twist: The secret to better airplane navigation was hiding in Earth's crust all along! 🌍 Airbus & SandboxAQ's toaster-sized quantum device reads our planet's magnetic signatures like a 4.6-billion-year-old GPS system. Unlike GPS, rocks don't get jammed - the first novel navigation breakthrough in 50 years! ✈️
Airbus's Silicon Valley innovation center Acubed and Google spinout SandboxAQ have successfully tested a quantum-sensing navigation device as an alternative to GPS during 150 hours of flights across the continental United States. The toaster-sized MagNav device uses quantum physics to measure unique...
This quantum sensor reads motion in 3D with ultracold atoms—no GPS needed. #QuantumNavigation #BoseEinsteinCondensate #AIinPhysics

#QuantumNavigation could transform how we travel

I feel like I’ve been living under a rock, waking up to #QuantumNavigation being a field now.
Improve navigation accuracy for deep space & undersea exploration , as well as supplement GNSS systems when jammed like durin the recent events in Finnish airspace, by using quantum interferometry? Yes, please!
