Yes, it seems that YC is becoming full of optimists. People who likely have a severe personal bias towards believing that "it always works out in the end".

This attitude is difficult to keep as you get older and you learn about reality.

Obviously when times are good, you want to be lead by optimists who will take bigger risks.




I'm convinced that this optimism bias is what drives "the business cycle."
