Or everyone thinks about this problem this way, and the reality is that you should think about it this way, this very different way, this orthogonal way.
And it might not make sense to a lot of people, but here's the reasons why that makes sense.
And here's all the questions you might ask, and here's all, let's go down the rabbit hole together and figure out what the answer is.
It's those types of companies that founders fund backs.
And so it's completely without a theme.
I think the biggest theme is it should be something that can change an industry and is like N of one, just like a totally unique company that is unlike anything else.
I think a lot of it's gonna come back to the energy stuff that we talked about.
I think it's gonna be energy growth.
I think everything comes back to energy.
So if it's manufacturing, if it's AI, it's gonna come back to energy production.
If it's economic growth, it comes back to energy production.
So I think we're in this period of immense need for more energy, and there's a lot of companies that could get started.
There's people starting reactor companies.
We're working on the fuel for the reactors.
There's going to be things like transformers.
And so I think it's a huge range of things people should do, but it's not going to just be energy.
I think what should people do?
It's, you know, I think the guideline that Peter at Founders Fund has given to people, which I find really inspiring and like it's a good it's a good rule of thumb is do something that matters.
that otherwise won't get done and that only you can do.
And I think if you can find that thing to work on, that's more important than anything else.
