Nebius feels like it should be getting more attention. They are a legit AI team out of Yandex that is building data centers down to server assembly. They also happen to own a 28% minority stake in ClickHouse which the team founded, developed, and spun out of Yandex in 2021.

Trump is willing to to make aggressive pushes to maximize American interests. His end state is not tariffs - they are his negotiating stick. His end state is deals including w/ individual countries and w/ larger governing bodies like the EU.

What is unclear, which I called out, is how China reacts to this negotiating posture. They are a nation that takes pride in strength. However, they will also be disproportionately hurt by a large tariff. Trump also takes pride in strength. It remains very unclear who will back down first. What is certain is that the economies of the two countries are deeply intertwined.

I've recently been prototyping a mobile application to track your food nutrition. The key feature lies in auto-detecting the food based on a given image, and breaking it down into it's ingredients and then into it's macros.

Existing apps such as MyFitnessPal and HealthifyMe fall into two ends of the spectrum where you either need to add ingredients one by one, or your food is logged with a standard macro count where you cannot change the ingredients used.

Weit ideally provides a seamless experience in taking a picture to retrieving ingredients to retrieving macros per ingredient. Once that's sorted, food tracking should be granular enough to build intelligence around it to improve one's diet based on their requirement.

Honestly, I used to constantly struggle with the realisation that none of my ideas are unique and whenever I see someone having built something similar, I feel like I'm wasting my time. I'm getting better at dealing with it now though.

These past few months have been incredibly challenging for SMBs. Informed by many conversations, I've tried to outline ways that SMBs can become more resilient going forward and how technology can play a part. Would love to hear any feedback or about any projects people are working on! -Damir from Index Ventures
