This is pretty interesting and sounds promising. I found it kind of odd the emphasis on "dropping out" of Stanford and USC respectively. These guys have clearly been busting their tails to get things done, why even mention that? Am I missing something?

It’s the “Entrepreneur drops out of expensive university to change world” trope. It’s what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur didn’t ya know?

I kind of thought that, but then second guessed myself thinking that is such an old and tired trope that there is no way that could be what they were aiming for. I guess some tropes never die.
