As others are saying: almost unwatchable due to the bad editing. The site also has a ton of tracking going on. Seems to me this interview is all about (Bloomberg/YC) advertising.

But I got one interesting quote from PG. Funding multiple startups at once gives the startups the benefit of having colleagues. It's nice to have others around while working on your own idea.

Maybe this could be the standard in bigger companies too. Teams working on there own idea approved by management. This way big companies could be like founders.

It doesn't help with video editing, but you can avoid the other stuff by downloading the video with youtube-dl[1]. Yes, it works on sites other than youtube. Sometimes[2].

Most of the time I could download any video on any place with youtuve-dl.

Sometimes I have to read the source code of the page and change the web address I give it the program, though.

Ghostery blocked 14 trackers on the site and the editing was really offputting.
