How a simple comment on Hacker News made me quit my job and launch a startup
Frankly, this isn't very interesting. Some guy gets inspired to launch a startup, grows a company beyond the bare minimum, and we are supposed to swoon?Come back when you have 150 employees and the competition is begging for mercy. Then sing to us about the blood sweat and tears.People get inspired to launch startups all the time, and some of them become great businesses. Some of them fail miserably. Lets all do ourselves a favor and not praise effort before it bears fruit.
