This article states that YC is now valued at $13.7 billion. Actually, the cited source credits pg recently saying that is the current valuation of all of the YC startups, not of YC itself. [edited for clarity]
> "Then, with enough money saved, [pg] would quit the job and devote his time to his real love—art and painting—until the money ran out, and then he would scramble for another job." PG, is that what you do between YC batches? When will we get to see some of your paintings? :)
No, what I do between batches is work on YC. In the very beginning we considered time between batches as time off, but YC is so big now that there's always something that needs to be done.

"Unix, the open-source operating system." - Really? This mistake speaks very seriously about the author of the article.
Earlier quoted context omitted.

Do you paint or draw anymore? Just curious.
Ignoring the mistake of valuing YC at $13.7B instead of its companies, here's a crazy idea: I wonder when we'll see YC go for an IPO?
