Every single company I've seen was reporting all green trends right until the moment they shut down. Maybe a half-hearted "it is slower than quarter x, but we do very well". No-one will give you this C-level info on HN. You have to network really well to know these in advance

I get that, but surely someone can point me in a direction other than networking. I'm an introvert...I don't do networking. How can sunsetting all these companies be good for the Valley? The closure rate is 80+% and we need tech jobs, surely a win, even if it's not 10x is better than another loss.
