TIL that there's something called "Silicon Valley Bank" at the same moment that I learned that every assumption I would have made about something called that would have turned out to have been correct.
@mattblaze I also learned about SVB for the first time this morning and was equally not-shocked/horrified. Day job lives in the start-up sector, at the whim of external funding. These things scare the heck out of me as this lowly software engineer.
