So that wraps up the day of talks. We do have a reception now downstairs; that’s downstairs where you had your lunch, and also outside in the courtyard. Before everybody disappears, I do have some thank yous.

Thank you very much to everybody who has been running the event, a part of the brewery; it's just been absolutely fantastic. Nothing seems to have gone wrong. A very, very special thanks to Tara over there, Tara's Terrace, part of the Y Combinator team. She's the events manager, and she's worked really hard to make this success.

Also, thank you to all you guys for coming and listening, and thanks to all the speakers who have hopefully entertained you all day.

One of the things that we forgot to mention on the panel is application dates. We will be opening up applications for the next batch in August, so keep your eye on our website for that. The next batch will be winter 2015, which starts in January of 2015, and we'll be interviewing for that in November.

So that's everything from me. Please make your way downstairs and enjoy yourselves with some nice cool drinks.

How I Built a New $1m Business in 12 Months

All right, so this year we launched a new product that’s generated $869,000 in sales over the last 7 months, and is on track to do over a million dollars by the 12-month mark. Now, these numbers are pretty insane, at least for me. Back when I had a day jo…

Khan Academy learning plans for school closures

The goal of this video is to introduce you to the idea of learning plans on Khan Academy, and I’m going to focus on a plan for sixth grade math. But what I’m talking about is as applicable to fourth grade math as it is to sixth grade math, as it is to som…

Free Markets Provide the Best Feedback

Mark Andreessen summarizes this nicely as “strong opinions loosely held.” So, as a society, if you’re truth-seeking, you want to have strong opinions but very loosely held. You want to try them, see if they work, and then error-correct if they don’t. But…

Formal definition of partial derivatives

So I’ve talked about the partial derivative and how you compute it, how you interpret it in terms of graphs. But what I’d like to do here is give its formal definition. So it’s the kind of thing, just to remind you, that applies to a function that has a m…
