Looks like they were in a hurry to get this site out.
I'm seeing a lot of this with the .dev sites.
I don't see why .dev domains would have tighter deadlines than .com.

People spent more money on them and are eager to show them off.
For a very short period they will be a status symbol for internet companies.

#14Under the “ Ask a Female Engineer ” heading, I wish they would include a link to https://communequation.wordpress.com/2017/07/05/im-not-a-wom... for an alternate viewpoint, in order to reduce the echo chamber effect.
This is YC's site, which presents their view, which can be as partisan as they want it to be. There's no need for balance. Your opposing view is fine but they don't have to, and shouldn't, promote it if it's not what they believe.

Because if you don't launch today, people won't see that you were eager to spend as much money on the domain as possible (i.e. for Phase 1)...

Did anyone suggest they can't "be as partisan as they want it to be"?
This is teddyh's comment, he can say what he wishes.

#17I guess we finally found out who paid early access for the .dev TLD.

Status symbol? Those who know won't likely be impressed. Those who don't can't be impressed.
That might be what the buyer is hoping for, but the reality is they're probably mistaken.
Re: Y Combinator Resources for Developers
#19I wonder how many of the YC companies use the other YC companies. And which are the most / least used. How much effort do you reckon is put in trying to "align" them and keep them aligned? As in there's a consistency in (e.g.) docs, APIs, etc.

And teddyh is making a suggestion. Hence "I wish". You are being unnecessarily rude.
