Crazy New Ideas
In case someone missed the story, Paul Graham is indirectly talking about the feedback received by Mighty App.<p>And in this particular case, I don&#x27;t think this is a valid defense.<p>First, he clearly has too much skin in the game to be credibly neutral about it.<p>Second, he avoids addressing the main critique about this &quot;new tech&quot;.<p>People are not claiming that it is a bad idea because it is infeasible or not valuable, but because it is dangerous and also because it sounds technically ridiculous.
