Some of these really don't make sense. The implication that Cursor is a fraudulent company is a little weird considering they actually have real users.

Like sure, is it a VS code fork with agents stapled to it? Yes. But are they on the same scale as most of the people mentioned? Ehh probably not.

It reads more like a hit piece from someone with a grudge against random SF companies than anything else.

> The implication that Cursor is a fraudulent company is a little weird

To my reading the premise of the site is pretty straightforward: 30 Under 30 is a warning sign, not a positive signal. Therefore, as a company with 4 founders who were in 30 Under 30, Cursor is a risk.

It’s a silly little satire site, there’s a danger of reading into it too deeply.

Yeah, and the reason 30 under 30 is a warning sign is because the founders that apply to and agree to do Forbes to do "30 under 30" are much more concerned with marketing than actually building a legitimate product. Legitimate under 30 founders are spending their time actually building instead.

It looks like the score number is just the number of times featured multiplied by a constant.

Maybe it was added after your comment but that section has a warning box calling the score a "deliberately absurd formula" and saying "this is comedy" in literal bold letters at the top. No one thinks it's serious and it's even clearly labeled as a joke just in case.

What is a “satirical risk analysis” and am I to believe that the bottom section is built from anonymous submissions?

They should have left off the last section. No reason to shame founders if no wrong doing

If there's no wrong-doing, then there's nothing of which to be ashamed.
