What’s it with all the LOTR nerds founding Defense startups by the way?


It's just Peter Thiel's companies. All these companies have an agreement with the Tolkien estate.


Tolkien having s tier names helps, they're just cool


The nerds are the ones bored with B2B SaaS.


LOTR is fundamentally a war epic.


Kinda missing the point though if you're finding strength in industry
