I want to get into quantum computing in France, and there are only 5 major hardware companies and I'm applying to each of them when there's a job that seems that I can do. I don't know enough to pick the one with the tech that is most promising to win, though it seems no one can at this point. Being in Massy, a little further from central Paris, is a plus, I like quieter areas.
> J'ai une forte envie de faire ce job. Le quantum computing a l'air trop cool, l'impact pourrait être énorme, et les techs de base (high performance computing) du job m'amusent aussi. Mes études basiques jusqu'à présent : https://cirosantilli.com/quantum-computing. Ma femme est employée par une entreprise française et je cherche à déménager dans la région parisienne.
> I am interested in getting into quantum computing because the this field seems like it could be promising. My wife is French and working for a French company in Paris and we are looking to relocate to the greater Paris region. I've heard good things from the company. I have only done basic undergrad physics in university but I'm very interested in learning more from a more concrete point of view, AMO seems really cool. I can handle low level programming well.

We need a mini-series, this just doesn't have enough time. Notably, too much focus on dob, and not enough on the development of <Silk Road> iteslf.

Caroline's maiden name is <Caroline Debrion>. She is French, and they met soon after Ross was put into jail. The couple married in 2024, one year before Ross' pardon in 2025. <The spectacular comeback tour of Ross Ulbricht> explains:

Their relationship caused friction in the family. Ms. Ulbricht and Ms. Debrion sometimes butted heads, two people familiar with the women said. Against the wishes of Ms. Ulbricht, who had shielded her son from the media, Ms. Debrion helped persuade Mr. Ulbricht to participate in a Silk Road documentary, a last-ditch effort to sway public opinion.
