I know this "prior" stuff, Bayesian stuff, has a lot of respect here on HN, but it never did make much sense.

So, I should send the VCs some information that indicates I'm serious and credible. For a technology project, I do have credentials, far above those of hardly any VC in the country -- especially now that Chris Sacca retired, and I did complete my Ph.D. and Chris didn't complete his.

E.g., for credibility, SUSA says that they like to see some surprising accomplishments, big things done quickly. Well, I posted a list, (A)-(I) or some such here, and included some of those when I wrote VCs.

Here's my point for HN readers who want it: VCs don't read unsolicited e-mail messages. Since they junk such messages, it doesn't matter what is in them. VCs like warm introductions, but we don't know the same people. By the time my project looks good to VCs, since I'm a solo founder (they don't like that, either) with meager opex, I will have plenty of cash for rapid growth. E.g., if my company really is growing, then $1500 in server parts can generate ballpark $200,000 in revenue a month. Just multiply it out assuming 400,000 bits per Web page, 5 ads per page, $2 per 1000 ads displayed (from the Mary Meeker reports), much more with good ad targeting of good demographics, etc.
