> I think a pretty weird quirk of history is that if you squint hard enough Aramco is technically a Silicon Valley startup, with beginnings in San Francisco that was one of the largest IPOs of 2020. It looks like the company that became Aramco was Chevron, which was a result of Standard Oil's break up. So not sure I'd call it a startup. But if I squint even harder, and I consider their investment to simply be VC money, then it sorta makes sense, but if I squinted any harder my eyes would be fully closed. Am I missing something?
