Sam, how young can they apply for YC? :) I know this isn't the place for it, but when she said that, I just had to share. Give her a chance... time is on her side.

Totally agree.. and Marc is one of the best security engineers I know. I think we are all just to embarrassed (including the President) to admit it.

Every one of our customers who has access to our API demonstrates that the Ark (YC W12) API has much more data than FullContact's API. Send me an email and I'll hook you up.

Interesting hack. So since you inject that social info at the time of the email, that means if someone gets a new job, it will still show the old employer info / position in the ol…

Ark does, and with significantly more data.

We have essentially the same functionality coming out soon. Register at ark.com

Awesome! Looking forward to jedi controls in my Gmail. Great job guys.

This website should definitely be part of the Dark Patterns UX Library. It's sad how people compose UX (and investors invest in) shady user experiences designed to trick people. ht…

I gave them something much harder to break, but I guess they wanted anything to be able to break it.

It's totally not worth it unless you want to be a professor. Trust me.
