I did not set out to start a company. I left my previous job wanting to take a long break. Mere weeks into it, I found my co-founder, a real problem, and a real solution - all too good to pass up. Skip to today, and @finisterralabs.bsky.social is announcing our seed with Haun and Lightshift.
🚀 Big news from Finisterra Labs!

We’ve raised $3.75M in seed funding, led by Haun Ventures with participation from Lightshift, to build the future of structured data.

If you had told me last year by this time that I would be reposting this announcement about @finisterralabs.bsky.social
and @baselightdb.bsky.social I wouldn't have believed you.
Big things ahead for structured data!

Finisterra Labs, the core team building Baselight, has raised $3.75M to make structured data open, computable, and monetizable.

The new inflation hedge is a well-stocked tortilla reserve. Welcome to the new financial frontier 🌽💰

Looking for data on prices changes for other delicacies? We have tables for that!
For my @baselightdb insight of the day I present you the "Tortilla Index", my own personal proxy for inflation.

This innovative index tracks the price of Mexican tortillas alongside other key commodities over time, offering a unique glimpse into inflation trends.

🌮 + 📈 = Insight?

Using Baselight, we built the Tortilla Index, tracking how tortilla prices move alongside stock prices like Chipotle ($CMG) & yumbrands ($YUM).

Could food costs be a market signal? Watch our demo & find out!

🔻 Funny ads=disappearing
🔺 Ad costs=exploding

The death of humor.
The fall of seduction.
The reign of celebrity.

Super Bowl ads used to be funny. Now they just cost $7M and make you feel things.

If data had emotions, it would be sobbing into a series beer or insurance commercial right now.
Last week, we looked at how the inflation-adjusted cost of a 30-second Super Bowl skyrocketed over the years. But what about the ads themselves? They've been changing too. Let's fire up @baselightdb.bsky.social and start a 🧵

From stadium rock anthems to reggaeton beats, music is always evolving. But who really owns the charts today?

Data tells the story.

🎶👀 Good news, Baselight has tables for that!
Let’s talk music history! For today’s @baselightdb.bsky.social insight, which genre has ruled the decades?
The 70s, 80s, and 90s? Rock was the undisputed king. 👑
But fast forward to the 2000s—Latin and electronic music have taken the crown! 🎶💃

@baselightdb.bsky.social insight of the day!

There's always discussions about what is the fastest, loudest, or most popular music genre. Time to settle that discussion leveraging one of @baselightdb.bsky.social datasets!

TL;DR: Pop is the most popular :)

As AI demand surges, #nvidia stock moves the markets—but does its price reflect the actual cost of GPUs?

Good news, Baselight has tables for that exact question!
My @baselightdb.bsky.social insight of the day!

I was curious to know how the price of the nvidia stock evolved compared to the average price of new and used GPUs the last few years. It looks like the stock price over-performed the underlying product :)
