- jdp23 16y agoyou're saying that the way tech/web/software does VC has a huge negative impact on women founders. why do you think that's irrelevant?
- ahoyhere 16y agoCorrelation, causation, everybody's heard that old saw. I certainly didn't say what you claim I said. What I said was: Few other fields do VC the way this one does. By which I mean, most fields don't do VC. At all. VC is almost purely a tech/bio/med thing. Most small businesses - which is what startups are, by the way - take loans. That's how it usually works.
