yizi··on Show HN: LoveNest – find and rate places to date, make out, or have a sexy time
Thanks! Do you mind adding a review for The House Of Air Trampoline Warehouse? Or I add it on your behalf? I would really like to collect these type of stories for each location :)
yizi··on Show HN: Swivel – easily create an appealing and embeddable careers page
Hi! I’m one of the co-founders of Swivel. We noticed that small companies usually don’t have an appealing careers page, but it’s the first point of contact for most job seekers. Companies can use Swivel to quickly create and embed a careers page right into their website so they can provide an appealing brand to prospective employees. Please let us know what you think, thanks!
yizi··on Show HN: Browse YC Pitches and Pitch to Potential Hires
A little bit about HumbleRise:

My cofounder and I were going through the YC application process and had a lot of fun discovering and watch other people’s pitches. So we found about 400 YC pitches on youtube and made them easily browsable on HumbleRise.

We also realized that it might be cool if there were “employer pitches” directed towards potential hires. This could help the job seeker “meet” the team, and see if he/she would enjoy working with them. And for the employer, a pitch video could allow them to communicate through the video, in much clearer manner, the benefits of working at their early startup.

yizi··on Updating Our Open Source Patent Grant
I don't see how this makes everything okay to use now? To me it basically means, if I sue Facebook for any reason involving patents, I would have to give up using its code. I invent a time machine, Facebook can infringe on my patent and I can't sue unless I stop using their code. Please tell me I am wrong.
