&gt; &quot;Submissions will be accepted through Hacker News...&quot;<p>Not sure if I&#x27;m supposed to create a new thread or just reply here.<p>I&#x27;m working on an app that will disrupt the photo sharing and virtual local assistant marketplaces, which form a combined $12.5B&#x2F;year industry.<p>In short, it&#x27;s the Neato for virtual local assistants. (Neato is the Cercle for local photo sharing, and Cercle is the Uber for individuals.) We&#x27;ll use growth hacking <i>hacking</i> to grow virally, first in the SF area and then in China. (If we can get just .1% of the Chinese market, the app will be profitable within two years.)<p>Demo product is coming soon, but in the meantime I&#x27;m looking for a tech co-founder to turn my idea into a product. Being part of the 500 Combinators class will truly help me get this off the ground.<p>Thank you for your time and consideration,<p>Greg CEO &amp; Founder, Assist&#x27;r&#x27;ly

Dumb Dumb Dumb Dumb. I hate this day. Every person without a sense of humor takes this day as an excuse to subject us all to awful jokes which then completely overwhelms any signal with stupid unfunny noise.

A better name for the merged incubator than &quot;500 Combinators&quot; would be &quot;Y = 500&quot;.
