Who even says who the best engineering team is? I'm pretty confident they aren't in a startup.

  Oh, don't be so obtuse. They're an aspirational company in the space First Round Capital cares about.

    Stripe is not a First Round company. FWIW, I make no claims that we have the best team (I don't think teams are totally ordered, in any case), but I am very happy with the team we've built so far.

      > Stripe is not a First Round company Yes, thx for clarifying. Mentioned FRC as they published the article.

        Fair enough, though I'm not sure such a team exists in any case :).
