Give all the startup advice you want but please never advise new founders to lie about anything. It’s fraud.

Isn't the YC office technically extended office-space for companies in the batch, and therefore, legal?
No. And in any case, this was when YC was so small that the only separate room we could put a nameplate on was the office we ourselves worked out of.

There's a hubris and focus that has to be part of the startup psyche. For me a lie has the intention to deceive. If I say we got 325 new customers last week, it might under audit be 320 or 343. But Not 300. My memory just isn't that good and the difference just doesn't matter
