docs: run rate vs year-to-date throughput comparison

Browse Source 
Two separate numbers in the README hero:
- Run rate: ~700× (9,859 logical lines/day in 2026 vs 14/day in 2013)
- Year-to-date: 207× (2026 through April 18 already exceeds 2013 full
  year by 207×)

Previous "207× pro-rata" framing mixed full-year 2013 vs partial-year
2026. Run rate is the apples-to-apples normalization; YTD is the
"already produced" total. Both are honest; both are compelling; they
measure different things.

I'm [Garry Tan](https://x.com/garrytan), President & CEO of [Y Combinator](https://www.ycombinator.com/). I've worked with thousands of startups — Coinbase, Instacart, Rippling — when they were one or two people in a garage. Before YC, I was one of the first eng/PM/designers at Palantir, cofounded Posterous (sold to Twitter), and built Bookface, YC's internal social network.
**gstack is my answer.** I've been building products for twenty years, and right now I'm shipping more products than I ever have. In the last 60 days: 3 production services, 40+ shipped features, part-time, while running YC full-time. On logical code change — not raw LOC, which AI inflates — my 2026 output is **207×** my 2013 output pro-rata, measured across 41 public + private `garrytan/*` repos (including Bookface from 2013). AI wrote most of it. The point isn't who typed it, it's what shipped.

In the last 60 days: 3 production services, 40+ shipped features, part-time, while running YC full-time. On logical code change — not raw LOC, which AI inflates — my 2026 run rate is **~700× my 2013 pace** (9,859 vs 14 logical lines/day). Year-to-date (through April 18), 2026 has already produced **207× the entire 2013 year**. Measured across 41 public + private `garrytan/*` repos including Bookface. AI wrote most of it.
