I don't know much about this company but I love the name Qarnot which is suggestive of thermodynamically optimal computing. Carnot (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicolas_L%C3%A9onard_Sadi_Carn...) was the father of thermodynamic efficiency. He came up with thermodynamics to optimize steam engines, maybe making him the most steampunk of scientists. Thermodynamically optimizing bits is an echo of that for the age of computing.
