They are still their slowly plugging away at projects: https://harc.ycr.org/ https://harc.ycr.org/.
Edit: You haven't heard from them because they are aiming very high so it will take years before any of their work hits the general public.
Edit 2: From my understanding, they are still working on their Universal Basic Income Research as well and have chosen Oakland as the testbed: http://basicincome.org/news/2017/04/httpswww-youtube-comwatchvttnrz26u9sifeatureyoutu-be/ http://basicincome.org/news/2017/04/httpswww-youtube-comwatc....
- forgotpwtomain 9y agoI remember last time I looked at their projects page it was very underwhelming. Doesn't seem like that has changed.
- RubenSandwich 9y agoThese things take time. Good original research does not work in the same timeframe as front end frameworks. Edit: I feel a bit bad about this joke. I know that Front End Frameworks take time too. For example React wasn't deployed internally in Facebook till 2011 and that was after two years of research and development on it. Then it was open sourced in 2013, so that's like 4 years of development before it was ready for public use. But jokes depend on culture and the culture of HN is: "Front End frameworks: lol".
- baybal2 9y agoDo you have any contact with them?
- RubenSandwich 9y agoNope. I just follow Bret Victor, who is in Y Combinator Research, very closely.
