"A hot peptide summer" - great article on the peptide zeitgeist. Link below. My comments:
> A VC said they wouldn't invest in the space because there is no alpha. Wrong, there CAN be alpha in the peptide space; e. g., through novel formulations and delivery mechanisms, e. g. BPC-157 pills for gut repair
> Some found superpower's peptide Friday's extreme. I think we'll see more companies & VCs like @superpower & @felicis promote employee or portco founder health programs respectively (See Felicis Founder Pledge Program; 1% of the investment is dedicated towards founder health!). Only a question of time until this includes peptide stacks!
> The real Peptide bros of SF are science bros as well, who care about mechanism, delivery, and sourcing. We won't see a bodybuilder-esque culture of people randomly injecting themselves
Shoutout @sfstandard & @AlmostZara
Testing some OG Chinese peptides to bring more transparency to the space
So far:
- Sourced on discord
- Roughly 10x cheaper than from US re-seller
- Almost lost $260 dollars when supplier’s crypto wallet got frozen
- Chinese roommate negotiated for them to be shipped anyways.
The impact this game had on all the creatives in SV is crazy: "Drafted's growth strategy borrows from Donahue's teenage years playing Minecraft".
Congrats @PrimalNick & team on the launch. Incredible product!

Most people spend their lives living in buildings they had little influence over.
We believe AI can help change that.
Over the last month, 120,000 people generated 325,000+ home designs with https://t.co/M3bUUqREhP
Today, we're excited to share that we've raised a $16M Seed led by Buckley Ventures to continue building multimodal generative models for residential architecture and spatial design.
Here's a glimpse of what we're building:
You gotta be putting like 10x shots on net compared to what you’re currently doing. Most people take one shot every few years. To run up the score you should be putting up 2-3 shots a day minimum. At the end of each year you’ve shot thousands of shots while most people did nothing. It’s a numbers game. Your shooting percentage can be horrible and you’ll still lap everyone. Gotta score to win. Gotta shoot to score. Shoot more.
