VCs asking founders about their childhood trauma or how their startup is art is some of the lowest testosterone theatre kid shit I have ever heard

if i had $60 billion or so i would build the sickest particle accelerator facility in the US. hell even $20 bn could do a muon collider

Hahah we now get the same regarding our preseed at the end of 2023 (slide below) where investors that passed now say “Oh, if I’d know you were going to build thiiss…” I used to finish every pitch with this slide and say all compute is going to space once the launch cost hits a certain point. Some seem to have forgotten! For context, we were raising $2M at $10M cap SAFE and had at least 100 investors say no. Thanks @FinnMurphy12 for leading and @russelllong for being the first ‘yes’!

This is the slide deck from our seed round in September of 2023, right after @adarsh_exe, @suryamidha, and I dropped out. It was clear that organizing human intelligence was the core bottleneck to AI progress. Most investors who passed on the round claim that it was before we "pivoted" into the AI data market. It's funny how selective memory works.

@treypicou To go forward, sometimes you’ve got to look back. 15 GeV protons is what you really want

@FinnMurphy12 I want a 10 TeV muon! But also, why not? We are talking about pushing the boundaries of engineering and physics here. Go big to unlock the next frontier

where is the planned super collider in the US? there is a proposed electron-ion in NY and maybe a baby muon in the future. A 10 TeV muon (roughly equivalent to a 100 TeV proton) would cost north of $20bn not including all the development. That’s also assuming you use fermi’s infra and don’t greenfield. $60 for a complete greenfield campus hosting a large muon and others would probably be directionally correct

@AlmostMedia lol would think of it as more realism - they are playing the game on the field as they see it - it’s just foolish to consider them ideologues of any flavour

@RonanKMcGovern Neuberger hire at a16z - guaranteed if it goes back to the dems the messaging will be ‘we had no choice, we were huge Obama donors before this’ Why Thiel garners such respect. The man actually believes things.

devastating reality check seeing blow with the wind crypto people pivot to robotics knowing the scams are gonna pump & a lot of the legit companies will die on the vine for not leaning into fraud / hype / short termism - will all be facilitated by credible players hunting bags

whenever you think you are being too ridiculous or insanely ambitious in the goals for your business remember that you are not. you are probably undershooting by an order of magnitude relative you where you should be.

@ThomasAlxDmy You don’t seem to understand that SpaceX will be worth more than the rest of Earth if we accomplish our goals
