Also, is it recommendable for startups to apply to places like YC if this scenario is true for them? This has to happen all the time. What's to stop a VC from protecting his investment by giving a heads-up?

First, "professional" and "amateur" should be defined to better make his point. Also, the examples are anecdotal.

I have been feeling a bit uneasy about the scope of our idea for some time now. Today I feel much better because we have managed to whittle it down to one core product that is easy to understand and sell. Everything is clearer now. However,

I have a small doubt about one of the questions. "Please tell us about the time you, ONE FOUNDER NAME, most successfully hacked some (non-computer) system to your advantage." We are three founders. Do you want just one founder to answer or

The article seems to generalize quite a bit. The effectiveness of a letter like this I imagine would depend quite a bit on who the target is.

I will agree with you on the points of nomenclature. But most of everything else you said sounds anecdotal stemming from a possible bad personal experience you might have had. Just because HCI has been studied for several decades now, it do

This it a lot less true today than it would have been several years ago. I'm a designer and most of the younger designer's I know are comfortable programming in several languages. Anyway, your statement is an oversimplification. You could a

My setup: Device = TV with Computer, Software = Plex and sometimes VLC, Source = Torrents I bet that this will be the case (unofficial streaming or downloaded content viewed on a computer) for most people outside the US.

While I'm not saying 600-700 is fair price, I'm sure a lot of money went into R&D. I wouldn't doubt that R&D accounts for a significant portion of the difference in price. It would be interesting to know how much profit they are mak

Which, if true, will bring even deeper market penetration. Never thought iPhone discussions could sound so sleazy.

I wonder why Google broke from Android UI branding with Honeycomb. It doesn't even seem to be consistently applied throughout. Definitely not an improvement.
