I was under the impression that pedals negated the need for that classification. Wasn’t that the reason for existence of mopeds?

Perhaps YC could pay people to take a 4-12 week startup school, in which group projects were heavily encouraged. If a company was formed out of the school, YC would get the right to invest at the standard investment terms.

If there was a YC/HN supported cofounder matching program, I'm guessing it would have a lot more success than other attempts that have popped up. However, some important qualities of a good cofounder match are hard to quantify and require serious (and often confrontational) interaction.

Perhaps if YC let individuals apply without an idea to a loosely structured hackathon/conference, some good relationships would form. YC could fund the whole thing, and take a small stake in any resulting companies. Though, that's a little bit legally murky, so some consideration would need to be put into the means by which YC would benefit.

Oops thought it was. Thanks!

This is one of those situations in which incremental improvements in technology add up enough that they enable some pretty amazing applications. Very cool.

Aside from the 3d printing, this is possible largely because of huge advancements in immune-inert implantable materials and anti-biofouling coatings. I think we're ready to see this sort of thing become the norm very very quickly.

This claims that the network makes twitter, not the 140 character limit. Well, it was that 140 character limit made the network in the first place.

The author describes reasons why the 140 character limit is a problem (e.g. you can't have long conversations), in which they absolutely miss the point. Twitter is not meant to solve all of your communication needs. The 140 character limit allows Twitter to be a reliable source of quick bits of information - you can dive deeper if you want, but it's a great cursory overview.

Tools don't have to solve every problem. They can (and probably should) solve one specific problem really well. Twitter does that.

This isn't going to be a problem you can solve with a quick question on HN. You need to sit down with someone with a list of project goals and a budget. I'm happy to chat, because I know how frustrating it can be from your side of things. My email is in my profile.

This is pretty awesome. React and typescript have independently improved my opinion of javascript - now we get to use them together.

Yup.

  python -m http.server 8000

did the trick.

I'd be really surprised if someone isn't already hard at work on an iOS app that uses this tech. The scalability is of course a problem, but I'd pay 50 cents per photo (assuming I got a small preview of it first) or something of that order to support the costs.

It's all local, sorry.

Since the upgrade, I'm just getting "Connecting to react...If this is React Native, you need to interact with the app (just tap the screen) in order to establish the bridge." when I try to load the dev tools.

EDIT: Apparently the tools don't work for local dev. Just hosted the files behind a python simple httpserver.

I'm not sure that's the only difference. I'm pretty sure I could walk into many companies and read a ticket and be able to execute without ever having worked on their project before.

Really? What about ticketing systems? Certainly when I add a bug or a feature to a ticketing system, it isn't just as difficult as fixing that bug or feature.
