Essays like this one make us, YC-rejects, feel like not being part of something cool, something new and exciting and much better, while we're stuck out there dealing with "old kind of animals" and the question "why haven't they picked pikluk?" keeps creeping into my mind, and it's not a nice feeling. I guess it's a natural state of mind of any hacker: to be at the edge, have the best tools, best equipment, use best operating systems, etc. It applies to your investors as well. I'd hate to take an offer from a rich farmer or an oil guy. Well... enough of YC for today, back to work.
