-> Work on a medical startup; "Why don't any of the founders have a background in medicine, I don't trust these guys".

-> Work on AI; "These guys are peddling vaporware".

-> Work on connecting people your own age (something you might have domain expertise in); "What a vapid, crappy startup. Work on real problems!".

-> Work in Finance, at Google or Facebook; "I saw the brightest minds of my generation moving money and selling ads".

I truly hope no one is discouraged by articles like this one. (Also, where are all the much-alluded-to apps for sharing pictures of cats? They're so often referenced as evidence of crappy startups that I'd assume they'd be more present.)
