On your website homepage, you claim 160,000+ projects. What's the definition of a project in this context?

I agree. Recently all these launches appear to be driven by the demographics of these founders than any real quality products. I guess in the name of "diversity". In fact, there was a thread here and at reddit sometime back about YC funding some student(s) for a product that shows a calendar in your MacOS dock/taskbar. What stood out there was the demographic of the "founders". When that point was made in the comments, here at HN, those posts were flagged and disappeared.

So now, computer courses are being termed as "startups" and require VC investments and money? And YC is handing out money for this? Anything and everything is a VC funded startup these days.
