Move on. It's a numbers game. There are enough other companies out there that will see your passion as an asset. Understand things from their point of view: they're a popular company in a popular area. They probably have so many resumes being sent in that it's tough to manage the flow, and at junior positions like interns, it's difficult to differentiate candidates. One core differentiator at pre-entry level positions is ability to learn - and that's something that isn't too easy to pick up on in a resume. Their loss is another company's gain. If you're meant to end up working there - you'll end up there. Sometimes it's out of your hands, but there are enough awesome startups in New York that you'll get picked up somewhere fast. And if you don't get the job, once you're tremendously successful a few years from now - you can always send Dennis and Naveen an email letting them know they missed out :)
