    Oh man, I'd take this bet! Loser donates money to the winner's charity of choice. Pick an amount up to $200, and tweet @kapil so it's in the public record.

      Hey, I got an HN Replies email before you changed it from $500 to $200... :) Just kidding. Ok, let's do this. $200 it is, but you have to pick your charity now, and the timeframe for a return has to be sufficiently short such that $200 can still at least buy a mosquito net or something. My charity choice is the US Treasury. Also, HN is fine (my real name / twitter / github are in my profile). P.S. You didn't ask why I thought it wouldn't return a profit. It's not because I disbelieve in your company (you guys have more startup data than just about anyone).
