How else will the people who have been here less than 6 years get jaded?

More usefully, it may be obvious that these things go in cycles, but knowing exactly where we are in the cycle is very valuable to anybody who is thinking about raising money, or who is working at a company that isn't yet self-sufficient.

Yeah, the frequency of these things is a sort of useful barometer for those not in the thick of raising money.
Haha, yes. One issue I do notice though is that the articles lag behind reality by some months at least. So by the time the news hits, it's already a much progressed state.
