Ask HN: Are you a young startup nerd too?

2 points by sinwave ↗ HN
I'm curious how many of us (relatively) young folk there are on HN. I've been hesitant thus far to participate much in the forums or try to ask HN about things indicative of noob status (i.e. internship opportunities or REALLY early first-time startup idea advice).

Established HN people - would this be received well?

Others my age/weight-class: do you exist?

Clarification: I am an undergrad, non-CS major, who has been obsessed with startups for slightly less than a year. Started at square one (at roughly the same time) in a disparate but aggressive endeavor to learn about programming and data science.

I also do not have a CS background, but have contributed fairly immensely to the ventures that I been associated with. I have a good statistical background, and currently am delving into Python and R with some CartoDB here and there.

I do participate here, the topics are a varied lot that allows for good participation. So delve in, the community is harsh sometimes but some of it is essential too.
