Founders are starting to ship a company.md with their pitches: a markdown file written for AI consumption (alongside deck and data room).
As a VC, I consider this a very positive signal.
Instead of force-feeding my agent excel sheets, PDFs, and screenshots of charts, I can hand it one artifact that compresses everything I should know about your business.
What it tells me:
1) You respect my time. I can debate, discuss, and probe your business before we meet, so we can skip the "wait, wtf are you doing?" part and get straight to the heart of what you're building.
2) You understand how investors work now.
3) You're AI-native.
4) You're not afraid of a neutral read on your company. My AI will give me that anyway, the only question is whether you'll make me do more steps in between to get there.
One warning: I will ask my AI how biased your company.md was, and if there's anything in there that feels misleading. The more objective, the better.
This should become the gold standard for fundraising.
"And then there’s Henk.
Years ago, I was gaming while also making vlogs in the Netherlands. They somehow got enough traction that people occasionally recognized me. One day, someone I was gaming with saw my profile picture and accused me of pretending to be “that girl from the Netherlands who vlogs.”.."
"People also assume I’m a content creator because they see the vlogs and day-in-the-life videos. But there’s a whole full-time job happening behind those. Marketing is a lot more than speedruns and fun videos. I promise I do have a job.."
"People sometimes have a funny perception of me because they see me at conferences or in videos and I’m very bubbly and social. That is me, but I’m actually an introvert at heart. After an event, there’s definitely a point where I’m like, please, nobody talk to me.."
"Ethereum came later. My first job after my master’s was at Cartesi, and that’s when I really fell into the Ethereum ecosystem. I’ve built so much of my network here now that if I stay, it’ll definitely be the people that keep me here.."
"I first learned about crypto at university. In one of my marketing courses, we started talking about the future of consumers, how payments were changing, and eventually decentralization. That was the first time I thought, okay, this could actually disrupt entire business models.."
"The women especially have this really strong bond because there are still so few of us. You go to every conference and see the same girls, and we all understand what it’s like being in such a male-dominated industry.
We can’t lose a baddie in this space. There aren’t enough of us.."
"I think that’s probably my favorite thing about this space. It’s such a tight-knit community. Everyone knows each other, everyone is approachable, and even companies that should technically be competitors somehow find a way to work together.."
hcnet, our new eBPF-based cloud network stack, is in beta. Each server gets 120,000 concurrent connections for IPv4 and another 120,000 for IPv6. Before, it was 80,000 for both together.
Heads-up, switching either way briefly interrupts the connection.
the plot thickens! 👀 turns out you can hide a secret message inside the special tag that Claude will initially deny awareness of, but that's a lie!
Claudeception? 😵💫
We’re looking for an infrastructure engineer to build @LSquareAX with us 🤩
For 20 years, companies optimized UI/UX for human users. As agent traffic rises almost vertically, LSquare helps them optimize agent interfaces, such as MCPs and connectors, to increase user engagement.
• We’re backed by Entrepreneurs First @joinef
• Made our first deployments
• Sprinting toward Demo Day (traffic growing 100x w-o-w),
• Looking for a star to help us building databases, auth, SDKs, and pipelines behind it.
This starts as a project-based role for a few months (while we are in the accelerator), with the opportunity to join full-time and lead infrastructure after. SF is ideal; but remote works too.
Fast learners with wild ambition welcome 😍 DM or email [email protected] with a short note about yourself and one cool infrastructure system you’ve built.
Made a repo so everyone can contribute their findings or the pages theyve transcribed as well I've shared what my agents have found so far and the pages theyve transcribed.

PS: thank you @AlokSingh for the idea
Been running Opus 5.5 agents over the notebooks of Gauss, Riemann, Hilbert and Grothendieck. around 12,000 pages so far. Heres the best finding so far:
Riemann's 1860 shock wave paper is famous for getting the energy part wrong however his unpublished sheets at Göttingen have it right the Rankine Hugoniot conditions a decade or two before Rankine and Hugoniot plus results usually dated 19061937, all in his own notation. A second sheet in another folder has the same physics.
There are probably thousands of potential undiscovered stuff in the research papers of the smartest ever to live imo all of them should be made public and reviewed by ai years of work can probably be transcribed by agents in days
