New comment by ronfriedhaber in "Python's experimental JIT to be removed"

ronfriedhaber — Wed, 28 Oct 2026 13:57:41 +0000

It seems as if today, Python is in most cases a very well designed frontend for accelerators and their proprietary, vectorized, massively parallel IRs. Those libraries (Jax, MLX, etc) already take care of JIT code optimizations - Polyhedral et al - and therefore it makes sense for the frontend to not worry about runtime performance.

New comment by ronfriedhaber in "Our $445M Series D"

ronfriedhaber — Fri, 09 Oct 2026 13:34:59 +0000

> Well, yes, it is: most startups don’t pay income tax because most startups aren’t profitable! Indeed, startups seek investment because they have costs long before they have revenue, let alone gross profit — let alone income. This is by design: profitability is a lagging indicator of product/market fit (the adventure in venture capital is investing long before the business has materialized!).

Venture Capital is one of the greatest engines of growth, and fitting for the vast majority of early stage tech companies, it is interesting to see how changes in business economics may result in niche, differing capital structures. Eg. Companies which sell RL envs have vastly different economics than a food delivery app.
