Bigger issue is no developer trusts twitter any more. Just like LinkedIn. twitter has been unkind to the developers which helped it make popular. Remember things like lists, hashtags, media embed are all brought to twitter before twitter did so itself. But developers of these innovations were treated badly. And hence no developer wants to develop for twitter platform any more.

(a) can be solved using technology to some extent. What you need is a tool to record what a startup is doing and why certain decisions were made.

I think best thing we can ask pg to do is remove points altogether. Points are great for optimizing and ranking, but just let them go from display and keep them only in backend. May be keep average karma for comments but thats about it. Also if removing points is not possible, then punish people, in some way, who have less average karma for submissions. I think that will remove any incentive from submitting non interesting posts.

Perhaps you should create a launch module like jobs and pipeline the launch stories as is case with jobs stories. will help all startups of YC to get even attention from community.

I recently had a thought on how Viaweb's YC application will look like. It will be awesome if you fill it out. Will give us a bit more insight in how you think and look at an application.

I doubt he will say no if facebook/twitter/zynga/any other large internet company comes calling. Its a effective campaign which aims at google, but of course can go viral enough to be noticed by everyone else. Clever.

as recently as Yesterday. We use algorithms like knapsack problem, shortest path, minimum spanning tree and lot of predictive analysis algorithms. I have used 3 levels of analysis - memory complexity, CPU complexity and database calls complexity including cache hit/miss.
