I'm a founder in the current Y Combinator batch, Ask Me Anything!
- pmoriarty 9y agoHow important are the ethics of the founders and companies that Y Combinator supports? Is this something you explicitly take in to account when choosing companies?
- wirddin 9y agoThis AMA isn't being hosted on HN. It's on reddit. You should ask there if you really are looking for an answer.
- pmoriarty 9y agoI don't have a Reddit account. If someone one here does and would be kind enough to ask it for me, I'd be forever grateful.
- detaro 9y agojust create a throwaway account? You don't even need to give reddit an e-mail address to sign up.
- yuhong 9y agoNotice the "staying anonymous for reasons" in the title.

- reallydattrue 9y agoI laughed at that too. Have you ever seen The Zuck speak? He does exactly the same. Must be a "liberal tech" thing....
- sillysaurus3 9y ago> Sama, when asked about what would surprise people about YC, answered that people would be surprised at how much software there was. If the updates to the project tracking system only take up about 5 minutes a week, is there any other YC software that founders encounter or can make use of at YC? There's an internal forum, internal investor database with founder grading and info-passing, I've heard they use a lot of AI on the back end to help them, there's scheduling software, etc. But that's all I'm aware of. I can't say I was particularly surprised at how much software there was.
