    I always shudder hearing about RC. It feels like both wrong ends of career and hobby intersecting and the whole experience sounds dank and clammy.

      I am sorry about the negative feelings and associations you have towards RC. Let's think constructively: What are 1-2 points you would do differently?

        The main problem I see with RC which has prevented me from applying is there’s no stipend or housing. Most people can’t afford a summer in NYC without pay. So I’m not sure who the target audience really is, I guess wealthy SV engineers.
