Venture Firms, People and Market Categories Join the Brain
Why Care?
The brain can now answer more questions about who funds innovation and who shows up at the events where it happens. This batch adds 57 published pages, with 74,000 net new published words, and files 459 unpublished pages, mostly venture firms and people, to build on later. Marking them unpublished keeps them off the site until they're ready. It's also the first entry to report what the corpus gained instead of listing changed files.
Three essays that had been sitting as stubs are now written, and our working definition of Stack Engineering finally has evidence behind it.
