Not everything has to be about US politics.
- whalesalad 3y agoI was CTO of a YC agricultural company in the Midwest. I have a lot of experience hanging out with farmers.
- engineer_22 3y agoBut you look down your nose at them. Nice.
- randomdata 3y agoHence "was CTO". The business in question was sold to the competitor in 2021. While the details of the transaction were undisclosed, said competitor received a funding round shortly before the deal was done for an amount far less than YC and friends invested in wholesalad's company. Needless to say it was almost certainly sold for pennies on the dollar. Hard to win over farmers when you don't understand them.
