Welcome to the聽萝莉视频 News Weekend Update. An email form of this post went out Saturday morning. Happy reading!

Fall in San Francisco looks like聽,听coffee-robot tension,听,听cannabis funding, and聽esports. Last fall, while I was still in Boston, I would鈥檝e said that this month felt like meeting old friends,听, and the leaves actually changing colors.

Adjustment aside, let鈥檚 get into the latest headlines with an IPO update. In this week鈥檚 line up, we had debuts from聽Datadog听补苍诲听Ping Identity,听funding for Postmates, and a聽set-the-record-straight moment from Airbnb听(补苍诲听WeWork).

Then there鈥檚 the still-private, but equally big companies. A Brazilian online home goods platform,听MadeiraMadeira, raised $110 million; payments company聽Stripe raised $250 million; and WordPress owner聽Automattic landed $300 million.

We also covered two industries that have been traditionally slow to adopting new technologies but seem to be coming around. Fieldwire, which has developed a聽cloud-based task management tool aimed at those working in the construction field, raised $33.5 million. And Biproxi, which aims to be the聽鈥淶illow of commercial real estate,鈥�聽brought in $10 million in a seed round.

Through scouring filings, we also got a look at the latest venture funds. Deep-tech investor DCVC聽landed $725 million for Fund V; March Capital Partners is聽eyeing $410 million for Fund III; Revolution Ventures聽closed $215 million for its third fund, and Precursor Ventures is聽raising $10 million for an opportunity fund. As part of the Seed Series, Gen茅 Teare interviewed聽#Angels on its investment taste buds. Mary Ann also looked into聽Goldman Sachs鈥� startup investing spree.

Finally, here are some big topics in the late-stage and public markets you should understand: a theory behind聽Slack鈥檚 market repricing,听the trend of supergiant seed rounds, and why, if you care about Andreessen Horowitz,听you should probably care about the J-Curve.

After all of this, I guess one thing has stayed the same between the move from Boston to San Francisco: September will always be a little nerdy after all.
