Great article. What method does D-wave use for cooling? And are there other methods that aren't mentioned here?

Quantum Could Be Tech's Next Big Thing. But for Investors, It's All About Timing

Great article, would you like to share it?

@Barcode:$XERO LTD(XRO.AU)$ Cash-flow gravity shifts when cloud ledgers buy payment rails. Xero has compressed half a decade of US expansion into a single, audacious move. 🚨📈🚀 Xero’s Big Leap: Betting A$3.8 Billion on US Fintech Disruption 🚀📈🚨 Xero’s US$2.5 B (A$3.8 B) swoop on Melio is its loudest statement yet, vaulting the Wellington, New Zealand 🇳🇿 -born cloud giant into 🇺🇸America’s hyper-fragmented SMB payments jungle. The sticker price looks steep at ~13 × FY25 revenue, yet synergy maths drags that down to ~9.7 × by FY28. Translation: Xero is buying time, distribution, and a payments flywheel it could never spin this fast in-house. 🧠 Why Melio, Why Now? Melio’s 127 % CAGR, US$30 B TPV, and US$250 ARPU across ~700 K monthly transactions give Xero in
