Hi Sam, does age of the founders factor in much in an application? I'm an older developer (40+).

Hello, Animex. I saw your question and I had this same question the other day. The average age of YC founders is about 29 (Source: https://www.ycombinator.com/faq/). I suggest you apply, what's the worst that could happen?
