> I'd do YC again in a heartbeat.

I think this captures my opinion too, in spirit.

That said, there's definitely diminishing returns doing an accelerator for a 2nd time. I did Techstars NYC 3 years after doing YC, and no complaints but once you're part of the YC (or Techstars) network, you're in and you know all the core teachings / philosophies - sort of like a college degree.

Plus, you already have the experience of starting and running a company.

100% do an accelerator at least once. But doing one twice, I would really consider the cost/benefit.
