Closest I found is this one: ```I'm generally sympathetic to what you're doing. But I hope you will take your time and do it carefully. This isn't just a company," Graham wrote on X during a back-and-forth with Musk on Tuesday.```
While not technically defending it's still pretty disgusting.
It's unbelievable that Paul Graham wouldn't understand how this forever and utterly compromises the Treasury. Nor is it remotely believable that he thinks Musk is capable of doing something like this "carefully" (as if there's a careful way to illegally tamper with the Treasury's innards).
Seems like he is just tweeting so that later he can say "Well I tried; I told him to be careful". Doesn't look smart tho.
Btw, afaik Paul G isn't CEO of YC, and hasn't had an "active leadership role" since 2014.
While not technically defending it's still pretty disgusting.
