YC S20 Batch Updates

We've worked as a remote team, and non-remote team. Remote is hard. I would be concerned that the quality of the experience would be lessened by not being local.

At the same time, it is probably a good excuse for YC to test if they can operate remotely, as that could push them to scale further.

I would think that if they had everyone in the batch self-quarantine for the first two weeks, that would solve the issue wouldn't it?

The other concern of course is how can they fairly accept people from countries that may be under a travel ban.

Tough decision and lots of things to weigh I'm sure.

Great news.

I wonder if already there will be a selection bias to recession-friendly and revenue-producing startups
