#5I have been reading YC lists for so many years. And this list has set a record for number of facepalms. Companies like Papa are stuff of nightmares. While others like AnchorUSD, SparkSwap etc seem like an attempt to ride a wave which was been gone for long.

#6I can barely read a list of 60 new start-ups without melting my mind. The names and value props turn into soup after about 20. I can't imagine being there, making decisions about all 60 and then coming back repeating for a second day!
Does demo day work for the audience?

Some end up perhaps getting too much investor interest, while others not even 1.

#8Anima seems really cool and ambitious; modernizing design code seems like an obvious necessity and next step to modernize workflows in the front-end.
My prediction would be that, if successful, this would empower designers and commoditize front end developers (or optimistically, let them focus on more complex logic)
Good luck to the team.

Read yesterday's list as well! I have always been following YC batches and to me it seemed this Day-1 was excellent.

#10There are some cringe worthy ones, but also a couple which I think are suprisingly good. I think ShopWith is brilliant (although I expect HN is not the audience to discuss this with).
