John Carmack has commented on this company before - does he have any affiliation? https://twitter.com/id_aa_carmack/status/1435307747470454787

I think he went to juvenile hall for breaking and entering, and so perhaps has some affinity for their cause through his experiences with that.

He is helping us solve some things.

Mainly how to get companies to give our mentees a chance.

Didn't see him on their GitHub, can't see LinkedIn.

Maybe just a cool guy tweeting about a cool thing.

I reached out and asked him for his support. He thinks its an interesting problem to solve and has decided to help.
