Enemies do not follow law and definitely do NOT broadcast their drone location via DroneID. Any system that uses DroneID as their primary drone detection methodology WILL fail in a real conflict scenario. We made a short video explaining why.

Repeated studies have shown that VCs overindex on shallow founder attributes, leading to predictably bad investments — and missed good investments. The reason this happens is simple: VCs convinced themselves that 'fundraising' is a desirable trait in founders. So, a product
Seed investing has always over-indexed on demographics, but it’s gotten absurd. Meet many founders with shallow AI understanding and low hustle raising massive rounds just because they’re 22/Harvard/SF. While some of most AI-native, fastest-moving founders I work with are 30+/NYC
