On: What I did at Recurse Center

[roncesvalles]

The paradox of networking events is nobody who attends "networking events" is worth networking with.

It's weird to say that about a YCombinator-affiliated event on a YCombinator forum. I'm not especially fond of YC but there's pretty clearly potential to make valuable connections in this sphere.

Recurse Center is only YC-affiliated in the sense that the founders did YC (S10). It's not YC sponsored or endorsed as far as I could find.

It doesn't really attract the YC kind of people either.
