  The fact that we changed our name because of a trademark lawsuit is a matter of public record https://dockets.justia.com/docket/california/candce/4:2019cv04060/344815?amp https://dockets.justia.com/docket/california/candce/4:2019cv...

      You can't attack others like this here, regardless of whom you're attacking. We ban accounts that do it, so please don't do it again. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html To answer the obvious rejoinder: no, we don't do this because someone is a YC founder—it's actually the opposite. We moderate less, not more, when YC or a YC startup is in the story: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&query=by%3Adang%20moderate%20%22less%2C%20not%20more%22&sort=byDate&type=comment https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu.... But "less" doesn't mean "not", and if we allow "you're such a scumbag liar" then we might as well not have any guidelines at all. Please don't post like this again.

      Hmm, it is interesting to me that sometimes when clear evidence conflicts with an existing mental model it’s easier to create imaginary evidence than to adjust the mental model.

        lol completely agree. there is ample clear evidence you're a scumbag liar yet you continue to create imaginary evidence that you're actually a good person.

        Literally every past comment of his is contentious or negative. Probably worth ignoring from here, clearly isn't acting in good faith on here.

- Employment stats. The fact that you use the same term to mean different things to different people is prima facie evidence of an intent to misrepresent. - Requirement to register with the BPPE. A physical classroom has not been a threshold requirement for registration with the BPPE since at least 2009. The relevant statutes are available online. Also note that online classrooms were not "novel" in 2017 as you claim, so that's an additional misrepresentation. If you claim that your lawyer advised you contrary to the explicit written language of the relevant statutes, you would have clear grounds to sue them for malpractice, and even if you chose not to sue them, the Bar would be interested in disciplining them. - Claim of unique regulation burden. No, you're dealing with the same regulations that apply to all private schools in the jurisdictions in which they operate. - ISA. It was found to be illegal. By itself it could be innocuous, but combined with the other deliberate misrepresentations there is evidence of exploitative intent. And that's just your statements on HN. Don't get people started on the misrepresentations you've made elsewhere.

Okay: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33827631 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33827631 What is meant by "this is fair" if not a tacit admission that you lied about launching an unpaid intern program? If you define a lie as any stated falsehood that you have not tried to explain away, then of course we will not be able to find one that satisfies — you've made sure of it! It's the same method you use to reach your "86% making over $50k within 6 months" number.
