What will Y Combinator look like in three years?
- JacobAldridge 16y agopg's personal time may face a law of diminishing returns, but the alumni network will scale up in a comparative way. At least, in the 3 year timeframe discussed here.
- aristus 16y agoSomeone asked this question 4 years ago today. PG joked about getting Trevor to build him a robot: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7554 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7554
- Samuel_Michon 16y agoNot to sound luddite, but I hope it won't have changed much. Same for Hacker News. IMHO, it's perfect as is. EDIT: the first time around, I couldn't read the linked article, as the server was HN'ed. Now, having read the article, I wholeheartedly agree. I do hope, that if YC scales much further, it will expand to Europe. I feel I shouldn't have to move to the valley to create a successful startup. For instance, my hometown is a sister city to Palo Alto, surely there's some opportunity to share the love.
- pauldisneyiv 16y agoNot to come across as a downer; but there is nothing to say that you can't create a successful startup where you're at. You simply cannot be part of the Y Combinator program. Have faith and get coding!

- jerf 16y agoNow I'm getting binary gibberish that doesn't seem to be any encoding I can divine? Going straight to http://areallybadidea.com/ http://areallybadidea.com/ has it on the front page, for now.
- jerf 16y agoThat's an aggressive answer to give to that question in this foru.... oh, it's the domain name. Carry on.
- geuis 16y agoIts just random broken text. I don't get the joke.
