guess how much this was

[Paul Graham @paulg]

A recent YC startup spent 250k on a domain. I was slightly shocked. But when I asked how much they raised after YC, the answer was 6.5m. So 1/26 of their round. This is the time we live in; one shocking number counterbalances the other.

A reminder that codex can unfollow all the fakes not following you back

@jiang_kev @TechCrunch lfg!!

[Kevin Jiang @jiang_kev]

Thank you @TechCrunch for covering Polar!

ChatGPT, Codex, and Claude weren’t reliable enough for complex work across the web, so we built a browser agent that is.

Tech has decided that regulation is the enemy of progress, but innovation requires capital

Regulation builds the trust necessary to inject billions into markets

To enable free innovation, Andera raised a $37M series A led by Lightspeed to scale financial oversight with agents

@tinahhong congrats tinah/aryo! to the world of free innovation 🥂
