Apparently I'm friends with YC now???
Thank you Garry Tan and the Y Combinator team for the VIP treatment.
Met so many awesome people, got court-side seats just meters away from legendary speakers, hung out in a private lounge with literal billionaire founders, hosted a 2000+ waitlist YC afterparty with Will Bryk at the Exa office, got Claude Max for 6 months (thanks Boris), and saw so many familiar faces.
Run it back, YC Startup School 2027 🔥
(Also shook hands with Sam Altman... crazy)

- A lounge at the venue with orange booths, a long table and an open laptop.
- Two people talking in armchairs on a stage, seen from the audience.
