#2I was expecting Slik[1] to be on this list. Anyone know why it was not included? There were quite a few articles about this company since it was founded by a 15 year old and a 16 year old [2].
There was also a WSJ article[3] today though I did not read it since it's paywalled. Anyway to read the article?

#3Great variety of companies, really looking forward to some of the biotech in particular. I am a bit worried about Vanido (The singing app), though, as for me (With no ability) a 34% improvement might leave me in the same place ;).

Some companies go off the record. One reason is that they have deals or revenues they don't want to share with the public.

#6Are most of these companies using bootstrap as a JS template? This look feels very familiar.

#7Looks like pretty impressive monthly revenues for some of them eg. Leon & George. If YC is the first investor (which is what I expect) they have done very well being bootstrapped so far.

#8>The startup hopes to someday be the “Monsanto of Cannibis.”
Not sure that's a comparison I'd invite in that market.

They were off record. Didn't want a couple things to be public.

The couple I looked at were on Wordpress or React.
