Two things I notice...
1 - The boxing analogy came up again. I'm waiting to hear from a startup that got in that views sessions with their investors as boxing. It just seems like viewing your esteemed funders as combative opponents is the wrong worldview.
2 - It seems like the rejection letters now have specific feedback. Is this new?
- rdl 12y agoThe rejection letters at the interview stage have often included detailed feedback. It's rejection in the earlier stage (not getting an interview, based on your application) which doesn't get detailed feedback (usually; I've seen some cases where it did, usually after questions in email).
- mathattack 12y agoThanks! I appreciate the clarification. I recalled reading something which explained why YC doesn't give feedback, and didn't realize it was for just the first stage.
