I&amp;#x27;d have thought that would be a heuristic YC folks keep in mind, and not use it to dismiss an idea.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Rejected Then Recruited: Our Journey into Y Combinator</title><url>https://repl.it/site/blog/yc</url></story>

I very much appreciate the hard work and hours Amjad, Haya, and the rest of the team have put into their product.&lt;p&gt;With that in mind, I take a little issue with a YC partner saying the repl.it is a &amp;quot;YC Story.&amp;quot; On the contrary, I think YC is a part of the &amp;quot;repl.it&amp;quot; story, and they were mistaken to take so long to see the value in the company.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Rejected Then Recruited: Our Journey into Y Combinator</title><url>https://repl.it/site/blog/yc</url></story>
