NZ Entrepreneur

SEPTEMBER 10, 2019

In the third of a three part series, serial entrepreneur and investor Josh Comrie talks about the emotional journey of the entrepreneur. I grew up in the 80’s in South Auckland, and that’s when I first heard of the term ‘entrepreneur’ – I thought it meant a French pastry chef. The hero career of choice back then was a white collar professional – you know, a lawyer or accountant.

The first condition is the only one that actually requires any special effort. However, these are not the only factors that make a cost-effective operation possible.

Y Combinator

SEPTEMBER 10, 2019

We began offering the option to apply to Y Combinator Early Decision last September. If you’re a student, applying Early Decision to YC allows you to apply one batch ahead of the current one. For example, you can apply to YC in September, get your acceptance in October, and start the program in June after you graduate. We tried it as an experiment and it worked so well that we’re offering it permanently now, for both Winter and Summer batches.

SEPTEMBER 10, 2019

Today Apple is going to announce three new iPhones. One of them should be a small form factor like the old SE. Apple discontinued the iPhone SE at the tail end of 2018 and has stated that the next iOS update will not run on the old SE hardware.
