VCs Are People Too (theahura.substack.com)

My only issue with VC is a few of them will act like they're open to submissions when they really aren't.

Outside of a few small projects with friends I've never gotten meaningful feedback.

I did teach myself programming and I do love my career, but I'm not going to lie.

I'm a bit bitter I never at least got to a meeting with a VC. I was playing with machine learning back in 2018. I imagine had I stuck with it, and had the right encouragement I could be rich by now.

I haven't completely given up. Once I come across an idea worth while I'll get to work.


Some of them sure do act like they're incorporeal brains in jars with associated bank accounts though.
