[overheard at a russian hill coffee shop] [[ scene: two new yorkers in SF; one is a solo GP (A), the other is a ~21 yr old (B) in the job market ]] A: so how are all the interviews going out here? B: oh dude, there's so many, i straight up told oai recruiter to skip the phone
if you were yapping ^ next to me at around 2:30pm PT and somehow see this, i just wanted to say: i thoroughly enjoyed eavesdropping on your 30m convo! loved all the hot takes 🔥
@suchenzang Saint Frank?
@_WEEXIAO surprisingly... no 😂
@suchenzang who is that stanford guy?
@ysu_nlp 🤐
@suchenzang was expecting slop, but the intel is fresh & mostly correct lol
@dkwon98 i don't do slop
@suchenzang Is the coffee good though?🤣
@m1nxu i am now way too caffeinated
@suchenzang That's why I am thinking people doing real stuff don't need VC money.
@suchenzang Fun to be on the receiving end of one of these. A first for everything. I don’t know of any 21yo friends in sf, but here’s the context, and we are hiring :) https://x.com/pimdewitte/statu...
@suchenzang SF, what a strange place. Sits on a completely different plane of reality
@suchenzang First they stole them from Waterloo.. Then they stole them from cohere.. 😭
@suchenzang What are the best guesses on the companies referenced here ? General intuition is clear . But the rest are unclear for me :)
@suchenzang def Saint Frank
@suchenzang "i straight up told oai recruiter to skip the phone screen and get me in for final interview" is wild lmao
@suchenzang this sounds like a script for a new Silicon Valley season
@suchenzang incredible
@suchenzang @grok any guesses who the various companies or founders referenced in this conversation are?
@suchenzang This sounds like life on easy mode but then I have no idea who these two people are or what they have done in the past so I'll reserve judgement.
@suchenzang How did you know their profession?
@suchenzang why did this guy say 5 out of 7 what is this ratio say 80% or something lmao
