yc now wants your claude code transcripts, which is the first time a startup accelerator has explicitly asked you to show your homework to prove you didn’t do your homework

@Daojoan hello

[cursedsql@hachyderm.io]

@Daojoan its even better imo - this is the homework that literally builds their entire platforms and can be copy pasted into anything lol (as if they have a moat at this point but still funny)

[lmorchard@masto.hackers.town]

@Daojoan I've seen how some devs talk to claude. No one's sharing those transcripts

[shadsterling@mastodon.social]

@Daojoan does that mean they’ll only fund startups that don’t write their own code?

[lritter@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@n_dimension @Daojoan a great way to prevent context rot is to stick to what i call the 0 token technique

@Daojoan I'll take "ensuring the brakes are off" for $800...

[shelldozer@oldbytes.space]

@Daojoan Ah, shoot.

[grumpasaurus@infosec.exchange]

@Daojoan fuck i wrote my code by HAND

[maccruiskeen@social.linux.pizza]

@grumpasaurus @Daojoan in crayon!

@Daojoan dear Gemini, generate a Claude Code transcript that makes me look super smart

[mainframed767@infosec.exchange]

@Daojoan they gonna steal all their prompts

[ehproque@neopaquita.es]

@Daojoan they want to make sure you don't cheat by doing your own work, as that makes you obviously unsuitable for being a founder

[theorangetheme@en.osm.town]

@Daojoan I could almost be convinced YCombinator is an elaborate performance art piece, if it weren't for all the atrocities.

[art_codesmith@toot.cafe]

@aburka @Daojoan Isn't that what they've already been doing? I remember some company admitting that the "train of thought" was basically fake.

@lmorchard @Daojoan based on how I’m talking to it I’m starting to think that I’m a sociopath.
