My impression is that a change of that nature would select against the applicants with strong alternative routes to funding. Either because they are already well connected and experienced, already have traction, or already have some other a

Answering the rhetorical question... I discovered it when I got momentarily distracted by something while entering text. On Android letters with alternate versions have ellipsis on the image of the character which pops up when you sweep ove

Could you go into more detail about what the reasons given were? My initial reactions on reading that was ... unreservedly hostile. Given the likely upside of going through YC if accepted, 12 weeks of separation seems insignificant. (On top
