ycombinator · x · 2026-11-06
- SOTA Wives releases its third episode featuring trq212, the creator who went viral with Claude Code content, recorded right after his last day at Anthropic.
- What was meant to be a quiet "funemployment" start turned into being outed on Twitter, with CEOs sliding into his DMs.
- Topics include his YC COVID-batch experience, over-raising and shutting down Multiverse, and why he joined Anthropic.
- Hosted by Sarah (Head of DevX at Cerebras) and Vivian (GP at Y Combinator); key takeaway: people you look up to are just people who kept showing up.
