I’m taking a look. This looks promising. Will provide detailed feedback once I give this a good spin.
For the most part, a taxi is only better when I'm at either an airport or a hotel. Otherwise, I far prefer Uber/Lyft because it's on-demand, no cash needed and don't have to explain my route or destination.
Hahah! Yes he will. Happy to help.
Upvoting this because of the Katamari Damacy shout out! Unrelated, but did you ever play Nobi Nobi Boy from the same creator?
Thanks Sama. PS: if it's helpful to know. The diversity office hours convinced us to apply last time. I hope you continue to do more!
Disclaimer: I'm just a random person. Rigetti computing was accepted with no traction but the founder had significant market expertise. That said, keen to hear what kind of milestones are expected of early stage…
Hey. We received an email saying to reapply because we were in the top 10% for the last cycle. In this case, what order do you look at the application? How useful are alumni recommendations?
Hey :) Just to clarify my statement - for some companies, it makes complete sense to stay in their local territory (think a young Alibaba). For some others, it doesn't. It's case by case.
Precisely. People need to be where their customers are.
That's quite a narrow view to take. Many billion dollar companies built outside the US. Alibaba the best example.
Hi Sam How do you decide between putting a company in the fellowship vs YC core?
Are you expecting another +40% increase for the next batch? I have the impression that companies that would've been (just about) invited for interview last batch , may not have made the cut had they applied this batch…
What happens if a rejected company from this batch submits a late application. Does this paradox cause the universe to implode? Haha - honestly though , is this acceptable?
Dissapointed, got very positive feedback from an alum prior to applying. But alas, that was not enough. :) I do find that international founders are at a distinct disadvantage due to lack of networking opportunities…
