Yeah, yeah Matt... YC is the YC of the East, West, Earth, and Universe. I think it's hard for the press to describe this new model because it's not an incubator and it's not venture capital, and "seed stage mentorship with little capital" is hard to describe.

So since YC helped create it, they're the easiest approximation. In fact, it's flattering.

It's flattering, but displays an even weaker grasp of basic geography than my own, which says a lot.

maybe because they YC does it in Silicon Valley too? for us in Europe you are all in the West...
