I had a VC call that went well. They asked for a demo, mentioned looping in an operating partner, and I shared details etc. Since then it’s been quiet (a day or two).

For folks who’ve raised before or worked in VC: Is this typically just internal review time, or does silence after a demo usually signal a pass?

Not looking for validation, just trying to understand how this phase usually plays out.

Thanks.

For example, Android builds steer towards using `sdkmanager --licenses`.

Suppose I get a preconfigured VPS with Claude Code, and ask it to make an android port of an app I have built, it will almost always automatically downloads the sdkmanager and accepts the license.

That is the flow that exists many times in its training data (which represents its own interesting wrinkle).

Regardless of what is in the license; I was a bit surprised to see it happen, and I'm sure I won't be the last nor will the android sdk license be the only one.

What is the legal status of an agreement accepted in such a manner - and perhaps more importantly - what ought to be the legal status considering that any position you take will be exploited by bad faith ~~actors~~ agents?

Seeing a lot of people running coding agents (Claude Code, etc.) in custom sandboxes Docker/VMs, firejail/bubblewrap, scripts that gate file or network access.

Curious to know what's missing that makes people DIY this? And what would a "good enough" standard look like?

I saw a tweet that tinygrad is so good that you could make a graphics library that wraps tg. So I’ve been hacking on a gtinygrad, and honestly it convinced me it could be used for legit research.

The JIT + tensor model ends up being a really nice way to express light transport all in simple python, so I reimplemented some new research papers from SIGGRAPH like REstir PG and SZ and it just works. instead of complicated cpp its just a 200 LOC of python.

It's free and open source. The aim is to have more transparent access to wine prefixes and the surrounding tooling (winetricks, proton configuration, etc...) per game in comparison to Lutris. Same features like statistics (time played, times launched, times crashed, and so on) per game is available in the app.
