Yeah, you don't want to be anywhere near a place claiming to hire HS graduates/4chan posters in disciplines requiring advanced knowledge for successful product development, unless, idk, they have demonstrated mathematical talent through well-established media e.g. math olympiads, thesis on some relevant discipline.

Almost all the time, they're shitty startups, where bankruptcy is a matter of time, run by overpromising-underdelivering grifter CTOs pursuing a get-rich-quick scheme using whatever is trendy right now -crypto, AI, whatever has the most density on the frontpage-.

Yeah true, I've had to work with too many fresh college grads to not relate to this. People try to take some rare case and generalize when that's really not applicable.
