dawn hound
#

Bruh rip

solemn robin
#

Lmao

dawn hound
#

Bro getting all the cracked offers

neat slate
#

dawn hound
#

@fiery pasture probably knows

solemn robin
#

The summer thing?

neat slate
#

tryna weight my choice between google and yc

solemn robin
#

Or full thing

dawn hound
neat slate
#

full thing

solemn robin
#

so YC ofc

neat slate
#

ain’t doin no startup school

solemn robin
#

if u a us citizen

dawn hound
#

YC def

solemn robin
#

also i’d say tell google the real reason

#

They’d appreciate it

neat slate
#

i don’t wanna give up on google though

#

it’s like a safe backup

solemn robin
#

u cant do both my friend

#

And u cant push yc to fall lmfao

#

It’s $500k or $50k

dawn hound
solemn robin
#

Easy asf choice

solemn robin
neat slate
solemn robin
#

Bro cmon

#

Your logic makes no sense

dawn hound
#

I think YC worth reneging google def

solemn robin
#

yea no doubt

#

tell google the real reason u got yc

#

dont make some bs reason for god sake

neat slate
#

is there a chance they will blacklist 😭

dawn hound
#

Yeah just be honest

dawn hound
#

They are way too big

solemn robin
#

Google supports startups and all

#

they’d blacklist u if your linkedin showed u joined jane street

#

Lmao

#

but for YC aint no way

#

Go for it

#

I worked for YC company last summer

fiery pasture
solemn robin
#

The growth is real

solemn robin
#

#

Everybody gets google

#

Not YC

#

neat slate
#

googles the safer path that’s guaranteed

#

that’s my thought process

solemn robin
#

bro safer path doesnt lead u to a beautiful destination tho lol

#

and some years later u get laid off

#

Not safe

#

and bro even if u get google ro

#

U have to wait for project match

#

So it’s not safe at all

#

Not at all

neat slate
#

but if yc doesn’t work out i’ll be regretting not picking google forever

#

idk

solemn robin

#

@neat slate also even if it doesnt work out all yc companies will look at you way more favorably

#

and trust me basically every other fintech company is yc

#

all the ride sharing ones

#

delviery ones

#

you can go to any unicorn essentially

cinder comet
#

How did you get yc summer already

#

Didn’t apps close like less than a week ago?

#

@neat slate

#

Also did you apply with just idea or did you have traction?

neat slate

cinder comet
#

Cool

#

Did you have customers?

pls dont fumble, go to yc bro make it out of the matrix prayge

yc ai startup school is not a pipeline to anything

#

Congrats on AI wrapper

#

congrats on vibe coding ur entire app

fiery pasture
#

what is silly gang

jovial vault
# neat slate got into yc

bro wtf u had a startup idea and a demo which made it into yc while doing recruiting for big tech? what does bro eat

jaunty dawn
#

why is everyone here saying yc

#

depends on ur team at google

#

also just do both if u can

#

like if u can push YC to the fall

#

google summer + YC fall is best

#

YC can be flexible so worth trying

dawn hound
# jaunty dawn why is everyone here saying yc

YC is like a once in a lifetime moment. You can get into Google easily if you already got in once, but with YC that ain’t happening. Also bro is young, he should be taking these risks now before it gets too late. Even if the startup fails, the networking and connections will go a long way

dawn hound
tired fog
neat slate
neat slate
#

in fact google released project marina today

#

also i stepped down from co founder to founding engineer

#

so i will not be going to yc and going to google instead

#

investors asked for full commitment and that requires me to delay grad / drop out and idt ima do that

dawn hound
dawn hound
#

You resume about to be cracked

neat slate
#

i’m fairly confident i can go back to yc again after school

#

so it’s aight

#
  • if i take yc rn id have to delay/quit school and lose google and zon
wanton terrace
#

yea fair enough, I feel like there’s probably a formula which u seem to have succeeded in

dawn hound
neat slate
#

i mean i have ideas and ship hella fast and thats all that matters

#

done it before multiple times can do it again

lusty sable
#

theres def some rng involved with yc even if u have really good product, i wouldnt count too much on it but ur def smart enough to have good chance

neat slate
#

sunnyvale

#

are u at google

#

shi ads?

#

oh fire

mossy lance
#

No cap we shoulda got in the first time

If it was us pitching instead of rivaan we woulda been straight

Holy orz

#

yes we built cursor before cursor was a thing

#

but gave up ish and the guy that started it was lowkey balls

mossy lance
#

😭😂and we got fuckin griefed by our “team lead”

dawn hound
#

Damm that crazy that you didn’t get into yc with that idea

mossy lance
#

The team lead dude was an actual idiot

neat slate
#

that dude highkey was a dumbass

#

and then i dipped

mossy lance
#

Bro thought he was hot shi after landing nasa bro 😭

neat slate
#

onto better things

#

past is past

jaunty dawn
#

but more importantly if u get into YC

#

id say ur chances of getting in again are very very high

#

YC bets on people not ideas

#

i think you'd at least get an interview again which is like top ~3%

jaunty dawn
jaunty dawn
#

feel like u get the best of both worlds there

#

keep google but also stick around with the startup
