No, looks like a really cool company. Their hyperspectral imaging sensors will definitely enable a lot cool science. Limited to optical frequencies though so not as useful for the type of micro or nano scale imaging semiconductors require.

Plug for my startup, Ephemeraltronics.

I'm designing an affordable electron microscope for high schools and small businesses. While that doesn't sound like a chip startup, the long term goal is to create multipurpose tools that enable semiconductor fabrication with electron beam milling and chemical vapor deposition.

The negative comments on HN about crypto give me confidence RE: it's eventual success in dethroning fiat currency.

I like the related Marc Andreesen model, have strong opinions, weakly held. To get anywhere new requires some degree of (probably misplaced) confidence in what you're doing. The key is balancing that with the ability to apply new information to your model, possibly even doing a 180 on what you believed was true.

Drag equations are "putting the cart before the horse". So many other issues with this scenario. Mainly the connection between vessels, but added cost, too. Could it be done? Of course. Would it be practical? Almost absolutely not.

I really regret not getting the sport license before my grampa couldn't pass his medical anymore. Would have loved if he could have kept his plane so I could take him up once in a while.
