When I got my first job in Silicon Valley it was through serendipity (my part) and desperation (on the part of my first employer.) I really didn’t have much of a resume – four years in the Air Force, building a scram system for a nuclear reactor, a startup in Ann Arbor Michigan but not much else.
Statements like that make me think most of the HN crowd live in a different stratosphere. That's a pretty good resume by normal standards.
