The band is very comfortable and lightweight, the monitor tracks up to seven nights of sleep, and the sleep/recovery metrics are well integrated into the Garmin Connect ecosystem.

Y Combinator files brief supporting Epic Games, says store fees stifle startups

news.ycombinator.com Juli Clover 2025-11-01 21:05:37

Startup accelerator and venture capital firm Y Combinator (YC) today filed an amicus brief supporting Epic Games in Epic's continued legal fight with Apple. Y Combinator says that Apple's "anti-steering restraints" have long inhibited the growth and development of technology companies that monetize goods and services through apps. The company calls on the court to deny Apple's appeal and uphold the order that required Apple to change its App Store linking rules in the United States. Back in

A bubble that knows it's a bubble

The four words that precede every crash: “This time is different.” Except this time, the person warning about a bubble is Sam Altman, the CEO most responsible for creating it. When OpenAI’s chief executive warned last week that investors were “overexcited” about AI, markets reacted immediately. Nvidia fell 3.5%, Palantir dropped nearly 10%, and the selloff spread globally. The warning came amid a cascade of seemingly supporting data. That same week, MIT researchers published findings that 95%

Building a computer in the 90s (2019)

Last Updated on March 19, 2024 by Dave Farquhar Building a computer in the 90s was different than it is today. It wasn’t just harder or more expensive. It seemed like every new build was an adventure. I probably built a few hundred systems before the decade ended, but the first few were definitely the most memorable. One in particular stands out above the rest. It was 1996. My friend Tom wanted a modern computer that was capable of handling photography work. He was in his early 20s at the time

What Happened to Egghead Software

Egghead Software was a US retail store that sold computer software from 1984 to 2001. It declared bankruptcy 24 years ago this week, on August 18, 2001, after an attempted transition to selling online failed. Egghead Software’s beginnings Egghead Software started in Bellevue, Washington in 1984 and moved eastward. Its founder, Victor D. Alhadeff, had a background in oil and gas, but when his old company went out of business in 1983, he needed a new idea. That came from shopping for software. A

Y Combinator says Apple’s App Store has hindered startup growth

Y Combinator has filed an amicus brief in the ongoing legal battle between Apple and Epic Games, arguing that the App Store has stifled startup innovation. We’ve reached out to legal reps for YC and Apple for comment. The brief comes during the years-long legal dispute. Epic Games first filed an antitrust lawsuit against the iPhone maker in 2020 in protest of Apple taking a 30% fee for every purchase made in the App Store, as well as in-game purchases.
