Right time in the market and right place has a lot to do with it. Like TikTok during COVID. A bit of a randomness trap - we cannot quantify / make everything a data based. Also, is this looking at male founders only? A tad confusing

very interesting article. Didn't that FAANG would have so little impact.

Again, this is fallacious.

Prediction does not imply causation.

And you can’t just condition on an outcome (startup success), because that induces collider bias.

P(tech degree | startup success) =/= P(startup success | tech degree) =/= P(startup success | do(tech degree))
