On a mac, so can't verify - but if it's an Arabic character, seems plausible that Windows just shifts to right-to-left mode, which can sometimes cause some quirks when trying to de…

Maybe the YC startups are the products? :)

I'd be happy to read :)

Sounds interesting! Would love some more details.

Nicely done! Love the b&w look. What do the different colors represent on the map?

I was somewhat involved in two projects, one which was a physical object (but no electronics) that failed on Kickstarter, the other had electronics but was abandoned before even re…

Two things to note here - 1. The concept of "blackface" does not exist in Israel. 2. Looking at the picture, it was taken at the Dead Sea - where people go to put black, mineral ri…

Your pricing table says "Number cards", which should probably be "Number of cards" or "Quantity". I must say that putting a gmail address looks unprofessional and make me think twi…

I've been working on http://experimatch.com - a site for matching academic researchers with potential test subjects. Most researchers resort to posting flyers around campus, thus m…

I have experienced the same, but after updating raspbmc to RC5 it runs just fine.

How did you get all your distributors? Did you just cold-call them, or did they approach you after you were featured at raspberrypi.org?

Sounds good.

You seem to use a simple search algorithm. I searched for "battery", and only got results that had "battery" in the title. So basically, you could just skip the whole process and m…

He does mention resetting the USB port after every image transfer, so maybe that solves that problem as well.

Didn't log in (like others have mentioned, I hate using FB login without knowing exactly what it does). But - I did go to the "about" page, and you really should get a native Engli…

I like the idea, but I got to say the UI is a bit confusing... I really wanted to add a couple of places, but just couldn't figure out how.

Looks promising, but the event list was cut off at the bottom, with no way to scroll. It was not intuitive at first, but then I clicked the "See a list of events?" link and it was …

http://he.eytam.com/yi/mama/scripting "Yiddishe Mama" - a Python-like language in Yiddish, mainly for teaching programming concepts to Ultra-Orthodox jews in Israel.

But Israel is not a tech-metro-area, that's my point. Roughly 60% desert with sparse population in the south, and rural areas in the north. The tech scene is almost exclusively in …

But if you're looking just at NYC or Boston, shouldn't you be looking at just Tel Aviv or Herzlia? Two small cities that host about 80% of Israeli startups.
