I think you're not giving the meritocracy at MIT enough credit. I went to a state university.

- akhilcacharya 7y agoI'm not sure if this is sarcasm? I went to an unranked state university myself - I'd love to experience even a fraction of the respect these folks get.
- desert_boi 7y agoIt is not sarcasm. Stanford does indeed have the most alumni who founded unicorns. But Harvard, UC, and MIT round things out nicely, for American schools at least. https://www.theatlas.com/charts/HJSgAUdPx https://www.theatlas.com/charts/HJSgAUdPx
- akhilcacharya 7y agoThat's...effectively the same idea. I'd argue that all meritocracy has completely failed people like me so I can't take that seriously at all. I'd also argue for a replacement, but I guess I'm not credentialed enough to propose one.
