8 pointsby fooshintabout 9 years ago
Ideally vs actually? On average vs most productive founders?

You are not going to get <i>any</i> aggregate stats from YC by posting here. But anecdotally, from a few YC startups I&#x27;ve observed (I&#x27;ve only seen startups run by 20-something founders, so my perception is <i>very very skewed</i>) lived in the office (more accurately, the office was the founders&#x27; apartment&#x2F;house), so there was no distinction between work&#x2F;life, and the technical founders basically coded as much as possible.
