I believe someone had a blog post recently where they estimated this years total batch at around 4000 based on previous years numbers and rate of increase. So ~1600 on the last day seems like it could be in the ballpark of what was expected.
- brackin 15y agoInteresting, I suppose people want up until the last minute to work on their application, demo, etc. Maybe they just decide to apply last minute.
- jeswin 15y ago:) We decided to apply early on, but wanted to have a working prototype out. Still a couple of days away from something demoable; applying in the next 2 hours. (Node.js starts off as simple. And then as you start writing serious code, the flow control and nested callbacks begin to bite. You get back on track once you figure out various patterns of flow control (or libraries like async and Step). )
- pg 15y agoWe won't get 4000; closer to half that. Also, you can't simply multiply the application rate times the length of a day, because the rate gradually increases as the deadline approaches.
