Congrats on this new venture, looks fun. What do you expect will be the effect of this on hiring women? Do you have any relevant data from microcorruption (what % players were women)? It'd be great if Erin could also chime in.

Which OS do you support? Some screenshots or demo videos of the workspace would be nice. Edit: Also, a comment on the video - it started off well with the woman having issues with an old slow computer (which is what I have and so I could re

A 30-something programmer doesn't need a six-figure net worth to put $10,000 of their own savings into a venture.

Sure, I know this works for other companies. But just wondered whether it drives 8% of new customers or 80%.

I'm really glad Pebble are sticking to their own unique values and serving their hardcore supporters, instead of trying to compete with Apple. If you think it's bland, it's obviously not for you, but going by the rate at whic

Anything "universal" will probably be rejected. Have you considered making a tiny hyperlocal version first?

Forget YC for a moment and think about how you will describe it to your users. If you need 1,000 words to get each user, then it's probably not going to work. It sounds like you're building a new version of something that already

storage is a feature, not a product This is such a strange strawman argument. Dropbox is not just some dumb storage. You may think syncing across computers and sharing are trivial things, but they are not. Even if you're right, maybe

Don't request, require it. Ask for name, email, business name, phone number (optional). Less fun than a clever analytics hack but it will work. Try it for a week or two.

The simplest solution is to require your customers to register before downloading a free trial. I can't think of a good reason why you can't do this for B2B software. And if you're worried about conversion rates dropping, I h

With your skills, you should be able to get well-paying remote work. But you have to get out of this mindset of being stuck in your local market. I have applied to remote jobs but most don't want someone that is not from the US. That

If your customers won't pre-pay, then I'm not sure you can count them as pre-sold. Do you have any sort of formal commitment? If you're just assuming they won't pre-pay, then it might be a costly mistake. At least ask th
