can one of the private credit guys pls go rip a fund focused on 20-smthg sf founders? there's a ton of places to get debt but i stg none of them are legible + accessible to the lil zucks running around sf. much needed in the age of asset heavy businesses accruing the most value this would look like front office of a vc, back office of a trad credit firm that means: •on the ground in sf. talent mapping. events. hire a sourcer corgi girlie. be a chiller founders wanna hang with. this is the core differentiation from trad credit firms founders don't know personally •legit financial dd, not vibes investing •educate the lil zucks on asset classes and forms of financing. lack of financial literacy across the valley is astounding. we need a new form of education / accelerator, focused on financing for founders •new form of network value-add for early stage founders. this neofirm would spike on PE style search algo connections, not ex. recruiting engineers hmu if you do this. i have a ton of inflecting founder friends with "companies that touch atoms" who need you asap

I don't know why James Bond producers are auditioning anyone at all when Pierce Brosnan returning to the role is the absolute perfect idea. Have him come out of retirement because MI6 needs a veteran's expertise for a mission that no amateur 007 could ever accomplish. Brosnan still looks handsome as hell and the film would easily make a billion dollars to see perhaps the greatest actor to ever play Bond do it again.

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez were seen leaving Nerano after grabbing dinner together in Beverly Hills.

we have a winner for the most absurd AI startup ever this Peter Thiel backed company uses AI robots to stab fish in the brain so they taste better and last up to 3x longer it's called Shinkei and it modernizes a centuries-old Japanese technique dozens of Michelin-star restaurants are already lining up to buy the fish here's how it works: > the problem is when a fish gets caught, it usually just suffocates on the boat > that stress floods the meat with hormones and lactic acid, which hurts the flavor and texture > the old Japanese fix for this was spiking the fish through the brain right after the catch, which stops all that > but doing it by hand is impractical for most American fishing crews > so Shinkei built a fridge-sized robot that sits right on the boat's deck > the crew feeds in a fish and AI identifies the exact species, so it knows exactly where the brain and gills are > the robot then drives the spike through the brain and cuts near the gills in about 7 seconds > the fish goes into an ice slurry so the blood drains out > so the fish doesn't sit there stressing out, and that tasty flavor and texture is preserved example number 5,392,417 of how AI can be applied to literally anything

I’m also going to add on to this. Hearing mass panic in SF right now at ANT. Everyone is panicking over what will happen to their equity. Hearing a lot of things right now. Scary.
