It'll take a very compelling story.
- pg 20y agoYou can't convince us of that. Anyone who's been funded by YC knows that what we do, we have to do in person. We once tried funding a group that didn't move. When they flew in for demo day, they looked like the plant that hadn't gotten the Miracle-Gro. The upside of that rather expensive experiment was that it showed us how much YC helps people.
- samb 20y agodo you think that a virtual YC environment could be designed to provide the same rich experience that you get in person? or is it simply impossible? just a point of curiosity on my part.
