Here is how to make it great, without spending $$$ on great gear...

Today is YC Alumni Demo Day!
It's a marvel at how good they've made remote pitches. The software team is excellent
Once again, my demo day feature requests for YC:
- Invite alumni to be YC's LPs.
- Setup an SPV for small checks for each company
- Let people commit to the SPV right when they pitch

Related tech idea: solar propane.
- Remote locations are expensive to service with powerlines
- Most already have tanks for gas like propane
- Most have ample space
Create a box to convert atmospheric CO2 to propane using excess solar.
