Anyone dumb enough that would like to take on a project like this? Email me : rmena123 at gmail

I didn't say I wanted to confront them. I just want to know who it is and its highly likely its someone I know. They are not pros, by leaving that much evidence on the table.

Look failed things happen all the time, no one is going back to each other and asking permission to continue. Do it! Now don't go off and use the same exact code of the project, start fresh and try to change things up. Good Luck! And I

I think the IPO is coming in late, Dropbox had its prime time a few years back. I loved it back then, but now not so much and never use anymore.

Did you see any black or Hispanic founders in YC for the first years? Not to repeat myself, but look at the YC staff today. How many? http://www.ycombinator.com/people/

Someone wrote this above... I agree with. The decision of who to fund may rely in part on seeking people similar to oneself and if the demographics of the applicant pool are not reflected in the staff of YC it may skew the outcome against m

By no means am I saying I should of been accepted. I'm actually saying the opposite, I don't fit the mold and probably lack many things, but I rather look at it as a whole. The truth is the staff at YC lack blacks or Hispanics. An

I'll email you sometime and I appreciate the response. Just to set my example, how many staff at YC are black or Hispanic in the list below? I find it odd considering the amount of population of these groups in the USA alone. Not many

Yes, you could game the application, but yes it wouldn't take you far, maybe an interview to tell them what I did. Which I wouldn't do.

It's not that they reject them for being black or Hispanic, but look at the numbers, not just recent classes. It's a hot topic for companies to do the right thing now, its then they start to care. I don't think its done on pu

I can bet, if YC had the stats for race/ethnicity amount who applied, we would be shocked of the amount of blacks or Latinos who were never accepted. Especially from the early days. Count me and a few other Hispanics who never have bee

Sounds interesting... can i see a demo? I'll let you know what I think.

Yea exactly they did everything and left out the inventor, what that does is create a one tracked mind team behind them all and not only that it didn't attract real inventors to get great product ideas. If they gave the inventor more y

I loved the concept of it, but when you read how much they gave the inventor... it was crazy...if you have a great idea keep pushing for the right things to come together, not a rip off deal of your ideas! And that is why it is where it is.

Sounds like you need to move back home, take a break for awhile, then start making your own startup, if you want a real adventure your own thing is the path to go. What kinda skills do you have?

I lived in the area, not much going on. Majority are established big companies, not necessarily tech companies.

School maybe not for you, but you better start learning somethings.

Like I said above... Look up the majority of founders and they all fall into a category type. Not saying it's a bad thing, but it's a type. Yea I did say that, but you are talking about success and failure like that has anything t

I'm the type of person that doesn't care to be accepted and rather put energy into my own startup. I will be successful regardless, it's not saying I am afraid to fail. Failure and success have nothing to do with being accept

I am not saying selecting a type of group of people is wrong, but YC does have a type they only choose. If you disagree look up any founder and they will fall into a category type. Ask yourself... How many woman accepted and not in recent y

I couldn't have said it better, I think YC just doesn't see things from the other side unless they are in complete denial. "I think this issue is just an understandable blind spot for you."

Maybe, by no means am I referring to my past rejections, I know I lacked a team or maybe project idea itself. But look around the room next meetup, its lacking something.

I hope so cause I keep looking haha. I have jet black hair, tanned skin, know very little Spanish, but people still approach me speaking Spanish. :)

I don't care to talk about race or gender, if you are good you are good, but me being American/Mexican "Hispanic" does YC have any?

by rmena123 12y ago
I agree somewhat, I guess its just the impression many have.

I am not just talking about education. Trust me, look up the founders, its the same type. If I walked into a YC dinner I would probably stand out, not for lack of education, but something would not be mixed up right.
