The lack of comment moderation on the LiveStream is atrocious. "It's just a livestream!" It's supposed to be a learning experience. Get moderators, please.


The very first comment when you click on the link is incredibly offensive and not welcoming to women.

It's unacceptable that the comment is still visible on there. We need to fix this for women to want to come back and speak!


The comment is garbage, but I don't think an anonymous, unmoderated comment is going to stop the type of women who speak at these sorts of events from wanting to come back.


You're completely right. Thanks for alerting us!


Even if human moderators are too much to ask for, which is totally understandable, LiveStream must have automatic filters.

Thank you to everyone involved in organizing the event. It was very inspirational and informative.


I hope I'll be able to watch videos of it afterwards. Thanks YC for organising!


Does anyone know if it will be available to download?


I'll upload the videos to our YouTube channel in the next few days.



They did last year, and the year before. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcefcZRL2oaA_uBNeo5UOWg


Anyone could share the list of speakers in order?


Parent is in order.


Lifestream is now off.


They're on a snack break, should be back in 5-10 minutes with office hours.


Who is the MC?


I think Alexis Ohanian and Kat Manalac are co-MCing.
