I think people find it a little too easy to forget that people in startups, and consequently on HN, are human beings with actual feelings. If a slightly off topic thread can remind us of that occasionally then that&#x27;s not such a bad thing. HN can be about more than <i>just</i> startups without losing what makes it useful and interesting.<p>Plus...<p><i>I fail to see what this is doing on HN</i><p>Bowie was a serial entrepreneur in the music industry (and others). He was masterful at looking forward at what was coming next and innovating and iterating his musical art to stay relevant. I&#x27;m absolutely certain there&#x27;s a great deal that startups could learn from how Bowie lived and worked.
