How much is the bias against startups that have been to other accelerators? What are the benchmarks for progress in those cases?
Is YC interested in high altitude drones for high speed communications?

YC has a giant application pool. This makes it very difficult for very early stage companies with no revenue / users to compete in the application pool. As a company with no revenue / users, How can we best stand out against those that do have growth / users? I understand that companies can apply for the fellowship. But what does a company lose by getting into the Fellowship over Core?
