a friend linked this to me earlier today: nitter (someone else maybe archive it? I don’t know what tusky has done to birdsite and how to make wayback play nice)
in one lens/view one could see this as just more of the same (if people were already gunning for YC track shit, there’s other things already implied etc), but even so: just how bad is(/must) the “belief” (be) for young people to feel this intensely about it?
I’m over here just watching the arc of likely events and I can barely fathom the anger and disappointment that may[0] come about in a few years after this
[0] - “may” because it seems a lot of folks have their anger redirected far too easily; remains to be seen if it can remain correctly directed in future
Sure, no school will prepare you for the amount of hype and grift the tech industry has to offer quite like reading Hacker News does.
As an educational institution I’d rate them somewhere between Prager U and UnIversity of Phoenix.
