Luminal () is creating PyTorch for Production – an ML compiler that generates blazingly fast CUDA kernels and makes deploying to production one line of code. Congrats on the launch, @stake_jevens, @joefioti, and @matthewjgunton!

We’re excited to announce that we’ve raised a $2 million seed round, led by 1984, with participation from Pioneer Fund, Y Combinator, and a group of incredible angel investors. Our mission is simple: we want to build the first fully agentic inbox, and this helps us make that vision come to life. Thank you to everyone who has supported us along the way. We are incredibly excited to build the future of email!🖤✉️

Spoiler alert: Christina is a guest on Season 5 of The Social Radars! I loved our convo and especially enjoyed learning more about how she approached problems in the early days.

Watch @typesfast pitch Flexport to Paul Graham and Sam Altman for the first time at Startup School 2013:

The last two months have been insane. I randomly came into the office this morning and decided to record this video on why there has literally never been a more exciting time to join @sievedata. We're working with leading research teams pushing the frontier of creative, robotics, VR, gaming, and so much more. It gets me giddy thinking about the fact that we get to work with such teams given how I got into a lot of this stuff doing robotics in high school. If you’re an engineer that wants to push the frontier of these industries and finds the technical challenges around internet-scale video processing interesting, please reach out! You can learn more about our work through the document linked in thread and check out our open roles.
