Hey Brian, we know this is really important. Our beta label is mostly for the lack of pricing since the technology itself is production-ready. We're looking for more feedback and we aim to announce pricing soon. What do you think about Urba

Latency is good right now (low hundreds or less), but for launch we focused on data integrity and reliability. That leaves room for improvement, including some low hanging fruit like eventually giving you the ability to disable versioning f

I'll take number 3. Core Data one-to-many relationships are indeed handled automatically. On the JavaScript side, you'll see these relationships reflected in both directions using unique identifiers, but you need to interpret them according

I think it's only the "wrong message" to people who aren't young anymore and don't program yet, which is most people. It makes programming seem less accessible. To young people, I agree: start now. I realize this seems circular, and there's

I can see how you got that. My argument was somewhat unclear, but the point I was trying to make was that celebrating the age at which people started programming makes it seem less accessible to those who don't program. And I think that's c

Nokia is standing where Nintendo once stood: struggling to hold market share against powerful juggernauts, and in dire need of a bold product that eschews conventional wisdom, challenges consumer's expectations, and tickles developers' imag

We like it overall, but (like everyone else) we're anxious for it to keep maturing. Some of my co-founder's thoughts (with a bit of PR spin): http://adtmag.com/blogs/watersworks/2010/10/mobile-app-creat...

YC's equity take isn't set in stone. That's why they specify a range. If you're experienced, connected, resourceful, and/or awesome enough to attract similar value for less equity elsewhere, you can negotiate the terms. Hipmunk did. As for

On the contrary, PG encourages open criticism. It's a good way for YC to improve. We had a great experience with no regrets. Apply now if you're on the fence. Having said that, my criticism is that, like any startup, YC has some growing pai

We submitted for Simperium/Simplenote (S2010) at the last minute. Since we were already happy and making money, it didn't really occur to us to apply until a friend invited us to apply with him (for something else). We decided it could be a

I've worked with Jesse and Jeff and they're great guys. The product they're building is a great chance to make something that's both fun and very helpful for a lot of people. I'd step up to join them in a heartbeat if I wasn't already occup

There's a group of hardcore people who will want to read and type while watching the progress of a download, as you described. But I don't think the iPad is targeted at these people. It doesn't even have an accessible file system. Watching

Avoid the extremes. Don't do one thing, don't do hundreds of things. Find a distribution that makes you happy. Go for depth. Go for breadth. Just don't be shallow and narrow. Scour the earth for things you love, then plumb their depths enti
