I submitted my YC application just an hour before the deadline. It changed my life. I was just a kid from Indonesia and @gustaf took a chance on me. It's not too late to apply. It can change your life too.

I’m excited to announce that @TypedreamHQ is joining @beehiiv! When we started Typedream in 2021, we were just a group of college grads who believed we could make it easier for people to create beautiful websites on the internet. Over the past 3 years, you have helped us

I just got my EB-1A Green Card!🇺🇸 After 8 years away from my family in Indonesia, I'm thrilled to say that the American Dream is alive! As an international student on F-1 OPT, I had 90 days to find a job. I built a startup instead. When I got to San Francisco International
