Bing already occupies that position.

Never had a pre interview before my interview. I think it may be if YC wants to understand something about your application that isn't totally clear, before making a judgement on giving an interview.

The difference is if someone doesn't choose to stay at your AirBnB, you take no loss. If someone continuously works on design competitions, they could walk away with nothing for hours of work. I guess some people feel it is taking advantage

I'm not sure if this is something good to admit or not, but I only spent about 2 hours writing my YC application, and we spent about 15 minutes planning and filming the video, no editing. The video got 2 views. We got asked to do an intervi

IIRC the average founder age is about 27-29.

Sadly not too many details are published. Wouldn't be surprised if the main vulnerability was caused by applications blindly trusting any certificate - which happens to be a fairly common design pattern when dealing with Android. Sadly, a l

Didn't you get the memo, every website is now a startup.

I'm a Canadian and we did something exactly like this as well for a junior level class.

Seconded. It was pretty obvious that it was a phone about 20 seconds in. Watching them finally figure out the keypad was in fact a keypad around 8 minutes became too stressful to watch.

My experience with GoDaddy has been nothing but negative. The latest being a SSL certificate I purchased 9 months ago. They auto renewed the certificate at full price 90 days in advance, without any warning whatsoever. Partially my fault fo

It's pretty much like Amazon or Ebay stores.

Obviously the functionality of it is terrible, I don't get it at all. But how something so large would be overlooked is near impossible. Not a single developer/tester had a dual monitor setup? Unlikely. Just because you don't like how it w

Highly doubt it. That's a relic from Lion, doesn't appear to be a "bug".

Not to be nit-picky, but $200/12 is closer to 17 than 13.

They're going to give stock options to former employees in exchange for consulting work? Stock options similar to the ones the just forcefully discarded from said employees? I'd be camping out to take them up on that offer!

It's a way to link, or "hook" to a web based service. You provide a URL where you want to receive event information, and when an event happens the server will HTTP POST the relevant information to the URL. This way, you don't have to consta

Lots of talk about the gross money coming in. But it seems to skim over the fact that there's a real product being exchanged. Records being sold at $3 seems like a bargain, but what was the cost of these records to begin with? Sure you made

Craigslist has no API, PadMapper was doing a near identical thing.

Facebook has already been using facial recognition for some time. If anything it will just increase the success rate of their current approach.

I assume you'd only own one if you had to work on one. Even then, it would be up to the employer to purchase it.

Yes, the round closed the day before the acquisition, iirc.

Obviously the products are desirable and wanted. No, they're not "changing the world", but why do they have to? They're using kickstarter as a portal to get backers to bring their product to life. They make beautiful products people want to

I can see how this would work well in isolated environments (at home or maybe work), but how would it perform if I was in a crowded area with lots of others using bump. My guess is experience would be miserable.

Looks amazing, although quite complex. Hopefully I'll get the chance to install everything and test it out. Looks like it could have some great performance gains for an api.

Not sure who pays for someone "to take up their time", usually its an exchange of time for skills, or time for experience. Also, assuming students can only achieve unskilled minimum wage jobs is kind of silly. It's not that hard to get a

Would be great to see some small excerpts or screenshots of functionality so I can see if it's something I'd use without going through the trouble of installing it first.

Assuming your time is free though... How many hours will it take you to write "two high quality applications"? I'm guessing more than a couple hours depending on the strictness of the term.
