Yeah, that's basically what I was saying. From what I understand (and I could be mistaken here) your company is completely transparent about everything that pertains to the business. I'd be willing to bet that makes some things (l

I think that I've heard YC partners say that the private, off the books conversations that happen at YC between visiting entrepreneurs and the people in the batch are some of the most valuable parts of the experience. Aren't some

What an interesting problem! As a mechanical engineer I know that this could be simplified to a lumped capacitance heat transfer problem. If you wanted to get a little fancier you could setup a thermal circuit, but that wouldn't take m

I'm curious about this too. Maybe there's a similar ramp outside the living room that rolls the car in?

Even though the article does not go into a large amount of detail about it, the actual paper [0] does a fairly good job addressing the issue of interference with the signal. I'm still skeptical about the potential for something like this, b

What a great minimum viable product! Ignoring the fact that there's obviously going to need to be more breakthroughs in 3D printing before this can scale I think that this setup could shed some light on the demand for consumer 3D printing.

We've been using Celery for a few months now to accept pre-orders after our Kickstarter campaign ended and it has been a great experience. I've gotten emails from multiple customers complementing us on how easy it is to pre-order. I highly

"So we’re also giving our Flickr users one terabyte of space — for free." This is incredible. I remember being blown away with the 1 GB of storage I got with my gmail account back in 2005. I couldn't even fathom needing a terabyte back then

"Sometimes you have the right product but the wrong business model" This is the 3rd time I've heard a variant of this in the past couple of days. Most of the time when I think of a pivot I imagine changing the product pretty substantially,

When I was in the 5th or 6th grade I tested three levels below where I was supposed to be in mathematics. It wasn't because I was brilliant and board, it was simply because I was board and didn't care. Yet, because I was a home schooled stu

$1,000 and the ability to say "Backed by Google" might go a lot further than you would think. There are probably plenty of people who would be willing to do something as prestigious as YC for free, so I don't imagine it'll be impossible for

Dropping the limit on income to become an early stage investor is bad because... accountants are expensive?! There are a lot of reasons not to crowdfund your startup, but this article misses all of the big ones. I'd love to see a well writt

True, but if someone is going for low cost off the shelf 9 volt batteries it could be a temporary solution. Plus they would learn how to build an electrical heater, which is a useful skill to have for lots of applications.

Cool starter project! You could solve this problem in a couple of different ways. The most obvious would be running the circuit off of the fridge power supply directly. I'm not sure how comfortable you would be with re-wiring your fridge th
