French startup Karmen has secured a small funding round so that it can improve its instant financing products. The company offers short-term loans to small companies facing a working capital crunch.Its a 9 million equity-and-debt round ($9.4 million at todays exchange rates) with Seventure Partners buying a stake in the small startup. Financire Arbevel and Bpifrance are complementing the round with some debt.The startup isnt the only company operating in this space that could be described as instant financing for SMEs. French competitors include Silvr, Defacto, Unlimitd and Hero.The reason revenue-based financing has become a hot vertical is because banks and traditional financial institutions struggle to address SMEs at scale. Its a highly fragmented market with small margins. Thats why tech startups are trying to fill that financing gap with a data-driven approach.Todays news comes just a few months after Karmen secured a 100 million debt vehicle that serves as the basis for the companys short-term loans. Six months later, it seems like quite a few companies are now relying on Karmen to fix their cashflow issues.Around 600 companies have used Karmen to buy inventory, pay suppliers, finance paid acquisition campaigns and more. Loans range from 20,000 to 3 million, from 2 months to 24 months.On average, the typical Karmen client borrows 200,000 with a six-month term. But as you can see, theres a wide diversity of financing options. Similarly, the smallest customers generate only 300,000 in annual turnover (those are most likely one-person businesses), while Karmens largest customer generates 160 million in revenue per year.More importantly, Karmen has attracted some loyal customers, as 80% of the startups customers contact Karmen several times per year to unlock a new debt line. Clients include Maison Kitsun, Balibaris, Les Raffineurs and Alm.While most companies contact Karmen directly, the startup has a hybrid distribution strategy. It partners with other fintech companies so that they can offer Karmen financing products to their own clients. Some ERPs, e-commerce marketplaces and business banks like Qonto already integrate with Karmen.This embedded financing strategy represents 40% of Karmens clients right now. But the company says that it hopes it can raise that metric to 75% of new clients by the end of 2025.While most companies repay their loans without any issue, companies can sometimes struggle to repay what they owe.This is part of our job as a lender. But we limit these risks through our data-driven approach, which allows us to have very granular visibility into the financial and operational performance of our clients, Karmen co-founder and CEO Gabriel Thierry said.In addition, we are investing heavily in our risk assessment technology tool (thanks to AI) to strengthen this approach, he added. Hence, todays funding round.Karmen currently uses around 60 different financial metrics to score loan applications in near real-time. Its embedded strategy can also be leveraged to make smarter decisions bank accounts, accounting software, ERPs and invoicing tools hold valuable data on a companys overall performance.Image Credits:Karmen

Elon Musk gestures as he speaks at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C., on Jan. 20, 2025.Angela WeissAFP/Getty ImagesBy Chad de GuzmanUpdated: January 20, 2025 11:45 PM EST | Originally published: January 20, 2025 11:15 PM ESTElon Musk was visibly bursting with excitement after President Donald Trumps inauguration. At a celebratory rally on Monday at Capitol One Arena in Washington, he pumped his fist in the air and bellowed a Yes! to the raucous crowd. But another gesture soon after has sent observers questioning whether Musk was expressing just joy, or something more insidious.I just want to say thank you for making it happen, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO and X owner told the audience of Trump supporters. Musk then slapped his chest with his right hand, before flinging it diagonally upwards, palm face down. He turned around to audience members behind the podium, and repeated the gesture.My heart goes out to you, the 53-year-old billionaire said, palm back on his chest.But the quick, salute-like movement drew attention as swiftly as it happened. In live commentary, CNN anchor Erin Burnett pointed the gesture out, and co-anchor Kasie Hunt noted, Its not something that you typically see in American political rallies.Social media swarmed with confusionand theories. WTF?? What did Elon Musk just do?? one X user asked. Streamer and leftist political commentator Hasan Pike posted: did elon musk just hit the roman salute at his inauguration speech?Other users immediately drew comparison to a Nazi salute popularly used by Adolf Hitler. Public broadcaster PBS shared the clip on social media and reported it as what appeared to be a fascist salute. Musician and environmental activist Bill Madden posted: If giving the Nazi Sieg Heil salute was an Olympic event like gymnastics, Elon Musk wouldve received a perfect score of 10. Musk even nailed the facial expression. Seriously, Hitler would be jealous.Ruth Ben-Ghiat, a history professor at New York University who self-identified as a historian of fascism, posted on Bluesky: It was a Nazi salute and a very belligerent one too. Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported the gesture as a Roman salute, and said it will only cause greater alarm among Jews who have expressed concern with the billionaire's proximity to Trump's inner circle while platforming views prominent with far-right.Rolling Stone magazine reported that neo-Nazis and right-wing extremists in America and abroad were abuzz after the gesture, citing celebratory captions of the clip from far-right figures such as Incredible things are happening already lmao and Ok maybe woke really is dead.Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.) posted on X that he never imagined we would see the day when what appears to be a Heil Hitler salute would be made behind the Presidential seal. This abhorrent gesture has no place in our society and belongs in the darkest chapters of human history.However, some others have come to Musks defense.The Anti-Defamation League (ADL), an organization whose mission is to combat antisemitism and which describes a Hitler salute as one with an outstretched right arm with the palm down, posted on X shortly after the incident that the billionaire Trump mega-donor made an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute, and that all sides should give one another a bit of grace, perhaps even the benefit of the doubt, and take a breath.Eyal Yakoby, a University of Pennsylvania graduate who campaigned against antisemitism on college campuses, called it a stupid hand gesture in a post on X, adding: Anyone trying to portray him as a Nazi is intentionally misleading the public.Aaron Astor, a history professor at Maryville College in Tennessee, posted: This is a socially awkward autistic mans wave to the crowd where he says my heart goes out to you. (Musk has previously disclosed that he has Aspergers syndrome, also known as autism spectrum disorder.) Newsweek opinion editor Batya Ungar-Sargon offered a similar explanation, adding: We dont need to invent outrage.Musk has previously been criticized for allowing pro-Nazi accounts to flourish on his platform and for posting right-wing memes and seemingly supporting antisemitic conspiracy theories, which led to an exodus of advertisers from X in 2023, and for recently supporting Germanys far-right populist AfD party, whose leaders have made antisemitic, anti-Muslim and anti-democratic statements, according to the ADL.The debate over Musks latest move has added fuel to other ongoing feuds, too.Progressive firebrand Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) targeted the ADL, which has been accused by the left of turning a blind eye toward Trump and his allies, in a post on X, saying: Just to be clear, you are defending a Heil Hitler salute that was performed and repeated for emphasis and clarity. People can officially stop listening to you as any sort of reputable source of information now. You work for them. Thank you for making that crystal clear to all.Staunch Trump supporter Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), meanwhile, threatened PBS by saying she would call it to testify before the oversight subcommittee she chairs that is set to work with the newly-formed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which Musk oversees. I look forward to PBS @NewsHour coming before my committee and explaining why lying and spreading propaganda to serve the Democrat party and attack Republicans is a good use of taxpayer funds, Greene posted.Musk has not directly addressed the controversy, though he replied to a number of posts on X about itthanking the ADL, mocking Ocasio-Cortez, and agreeing with a post that said: Can we please retire the calling people a Nazi thing? It didnt work during the election, its not working now, its tired, boring, and old material, youve burned out its effect, people dont feel shocked by it anymore, the wolf has been cried too many times.Musk also reposted a clip of his rally remarks that included him making the gesture, commenting: The future is so exciting!!More Must-Reads from TIMEL.A.

Don Pettit has been at it again. Not content with dazzling earthlings with incredible photos captured from his current home aboard the International Space Station (ISS), the NASA astronaut has now taken us behind the camera to show you the coolest lens change youve ever seen.Back on terra firma where gravity lives, changing a lens can sometimes be a cumbersome affair that leaves you wishing you had two pairs of hands instead of one.Recommended VideosBut up in orbit, master photographer Pettit has found a way to make the most of the space stations microgravity conditions when it comes to swapping camera lenses. In a video (below) shared on X, we see the NASA astronaut with a floating camera that has a lens attached, alongside a second lens, which is also floating.Please enable Javascript to view this contentFirst, Pettit removes the lens from the camera, and then leaves the lens floating in position in the microgravity environment. He then removes the rear lens cap from the other lens before attaching it to the camera body, which he then leaves floating in front of him. Finally, Pettit grabs the first lens and puts the rear lens cap on, and then returns it to its floating position. Job done!How to change a camera lens pic.twitter.com/JUujYAYSiI Don Pettit (@astro_Pettit) January 18, 2025Besides carrying out work on various experiments during his six-month stay aboard the ISS, Pettit has also been sharing some superb imagesand footage of Earth and beyond.His most recent effort offered an unusual view of Blue Origins recent launch of the New Glenn rocket as it blasted to space for the first time.In another post (below) that he shared on Monday, Pettit revealed how he set up several cameras inside the stations Cupola, a seven-window module that offers panoramic views of Earth and beyond.To photograph New Glenn, I set up three cameras with wide angle lens in the Cupola, figuring one would catch its exo-atmospheric trajectory, Pettit said in the post.Editors Recommendations

If they drop the 'Stolen Head' item when killed, you can exchange it at the Tree of Whispers.Speaking of which, the tree offers better rewards now, and the vendors are all closer together which is a nice change.Diablo 4 is getting some big changes with its next PTR(Image: Blizzard)Diablo is nothing without fresh loot, but there are eight new Unique items to find and eight new Legendary Affixes, as well as a trio of new Runes for Vessel of Hatred owners.Article continues belowPerhaps the biggest improvement is The Armory, which will let players switch between multiple builds on a character.A new season means fresh items to earn, and the Battle Pass is getting another refresh for Season 7.For the latest breaking news and stories from across the globe from the Daily Star, sign up for our newsletters.RECOMMENDED

Cool water effects dont have to be heavy, as proven by VFX Generalist Mattia Merenda, who set up an impressive rain FX in Houdini, drenching Spider-Man in the process.According to him, it is procedural (not physics-based), fast, and cheap, running almost in real time without FLIP simulations. The effect was created using a POPs sim to source and move the points on a fixed vel field.If youre curious about the workflow, Merenda should soon provide a tutorial for the setup.

It wouldn't be a Donkey Kong game without having a level where you are racing along a perilous track in a minecart. That is exactly what happens in the sixth level of Donkey Kong Country Returns HD. Except for the part at the beginning, you spend most of this level in a minecart trying to avoid crashing into enemies or falling off the tracks. There are plenty of collectibles to find in Crazy Cart, but they can be pretty easy to miss since they often require split second jumps.
