hey, fwiw, I don’t regret your raising it, and I appreciate that you’ve been engaging with me :) I would love for this thread to accomplish something other than meta rifraff, so — I’ve never worked as an Apple Store floor sales person, but:

It really does seem that plain of a truth to me, too. What % of Rhodes scholars enter with dreams of founding a “unicorn”? Probably a negligible fraction of that same % of Thiel fellows, which I’d imagine is ~100%. That the non-Thiel group
