YC also deleted this post out of shame too. This is the middle of the end of YC.

@mil000 community notes cooked his ass 😂😂

@mil000 I wish they'd delete Garry Tan from the internet

@mil000 This just shows if you spray and pray enough garbage all you need is a small percentage of real winners to make it make sense. Gray Tan can be epically retarded and YC will still win because the funded a few unicorns.

@mil000 most obvious data farm. Its okay the only people who fell for this shit likely poisoned the collected dataset with their shitty code.

@mil000 is it just me or did Garry lose a lot of weight

@mil000 my gbrain is tingling

@mil000 True ! Tan is an idiot when it comes to technology, but in hype cycle everyone is an expert

@mil000

@mil000 It was basically letting in a backdoor to your entire codebase lmao

@EndorsiVal @mil000 ycomb dropped a 'tool' that analyzed how you interacted with your LLM harnesses by reading through all your chats (data perfect for RLHF suss-ily enough)

They said it all ran locally on docker and that your "code" never left your machine. But they were still harvesting chats

@garrytan "derived data" is doing a lot of heavy lifting there lol

would rather u just led with this from day one?

@mil000 what was the start of the end

@garrytan wait so the defense is "we only upload *some* of your proprietary code to the cloud" — this is exactly how cursor lost enterprise deals last year

@mil000 Maybe if their leader wasn’t such a pus who blocked any bit of criticism

@gursimran_p @mil000 gbrain and the head of YC getting LLM psychosis

@mil000 Deletion is terrible optics. But declaring YC dead feels premature. The real story: funding options exploded. YC's scarcity advantage just eroded. That's market competition, not collapse.

@garrytan Good clarification. The issue wasn't whether data is uploaded, but what exactly gets uploaded.

@Alex_TGH It’s free don’t use it then

@garrytan what is the mechanism used to separate user data from code before paxel hits the cloud?
