hey all - update for SR008: It's now the FINAL weekend to apply for our next residency in San Francisco. Applications close this Sunday, Nov 1 at 11:59 PM PT. Here's the link: speedrun.a16z.com/apply How it works: - you apply - we review, reach out to get introduced, etc - if there's a fit, we handshake and sign - we wire our investment right away! - plus you get access to >$10M in credits right away - you'll onboard + start working with us immediately, have access to working out of our SF offices, etc The official residency starts Feb 2027 where we'll have speakers, office hours, and much more. I plan to be on site and look forward to meeting many of you You might ask- who's the best fit for this? We want to talk to you as early as possible, and that means: - no company yet - no deck - no huge insight tweet thread - sometimes not even fully committed yet You don't need the perfect idea. We can start working together when you're iterating and getting the idea off the ground. That's the whole point of speedrun - it's our way of backing you from Day 0. More official stuff below: - Deadline is this Sunday, Nov 1 at 11:59 PM PT (this weekend!) - SR008 runs Feb 1 through April 18, 2027 in San Francisco -- twelve weeks of firesides, office hours, and sessions, closing out with Demo Day on April 13 in front of thousands of investors - Capital: up to $1M with a two-week close target, plus $10M+ in credits from 200+ partners - Customers: SR Insiders gets you in front of 10,000+ buyers and operators, including 150+ C-suite execs, plus a full day of live demos at AI Faire - Talent: our Talent Network of 171,000+ engineers, designers, and product people. 230+ hires so far, $0 in fees. Plus visa, banking, and housing help if you're coming from abroad - A team of ~40 battle-tested investors and operators who help cover your gaps without adding headcount -- GTM, marketing, brand, talent, fundraising, and more - a16z speedrun is super selective -- fewer than 0.4% of applicants get in. You'll join a tight-knit community of founders from 20+ countries who stay involved as speakers, advisors, and often each other's first customers - Still in school or still finding your idea/team? Check out the alpha fellowship too -- up to $250K for students, recent grads, and dropouts

If you raw dogged a CS degree pre-LLM you can never be a true vibe coder. You’ve seen too much.

We've been heads down on this for 10 months. Excited to finally share what we've been building. We raised from a16z @speedrun , @tuskventures , and @MontaukCC to build @onegc_ai : the first platform that runs legal for you. Here's why 👇

The equation that keeps airplanes flying, predicts hurricanes, explains ocean currents, and powers modern engineering is the Navier Stokes equation. It describes how fluids such as air, water, and gases move by combining the effects of acceleration, pressure, viscosity, and external forces. From weather forecasting to aircraft design, it is one of the most important equations in physics and engineering. Navier Stokes equation: ρ(∂u/∂t + (u · ∇)u) = −∇p + μ∇²u + f Where ρ = fluid density u = fluid velocity p = pressure μ = dynamic viscosity f = external forces such as gravity Despite its compact form, this equation remains one of the greatest unsolved challenges in mathematics. Proving whether smooth solutions always exist in three dimensions is a Clay Millennium Prize Problem worth $1 million.
