   Wow, sorry for slightly going on a tangent, but this is really cool. Imagine all the products had a single syntactic guide to follow. Underlying tech may differ, but a uniform process for creation. There are a million flaws with this, but j

   Firstly, maybe you should remove the (YC W2016) from the title. It is kind of confusing and led me to assume you were already a YC backed company. It's kind of unnecessary too, IMO, but I may be 100% wrong on this. But about the app it

   I see a few great suggestions from people here, but I want to add — I see the grand vision here. This is a great "First-step" in this direction. I feel it's great because it does away with the shitty "sign-in-with-github

   Finally! Always wanted something like this! It looks beautiful! Sorry if this sounds to flimsy but how an app looks is probably a huge factor for me to consider using it. This always pushes me away from open source because they aren't

   I used to use Trello + Burndown for Trello + Scrum for Trello prior to this. This looks better. It will have to be very fast loading and should have burndown & scrum like features before I can convince my team to switch, but thumbs up f

    This is a vague reason. Animal slaughter for food is a common practice world wide. Kashmir isn't the only place where this happens. Edit — Infact, judging by the dress code, the video you've posted is from somewhere in South India

    I love SQLAlchemy because I had formally learnt MySQL in high school and I never seemed to understand why I wouldn't use Excel instead. SQLAlchemy + Python (preferably using Flask) and the Mega Tutorial by Miguel Grinberg is the best w

    As 'tdlyan' said, the median age was 30+ in one of the recent batches. I honestly don't think age should define the success of your startup. Also, don't let YC determine the fate of your startup. You are bound to fail or

    Hey, this is a very radical approach. I have great respect for people who ship something (anything!), because they have the vision to see things differently and actually execute this vision. This may take some getting used to, and a lot of

    We'd love to but we simply cannot afford it, especially since we're bootstrapping. That's the sad part about boostraping. You spent most time trying to keep food on the table, than actually building something awesome.

    As your username suggests, you're from Jammu. I think it's a completely different story there. Although I agree, I didn't make that clear in my original comment.
