- twcooper 11y agoThey say you can measure a man by the size of his problems.
- dang 11y agoOk, I don't have a problem with that. (The title struck me as a historical reference of some kind but obviously people read these things differently.) Btw it's better to email questions like this to hn@ycombinator.com. We only saw this one by accident.
- ScottBurson 11y agoYou're probably right that it's some kind of historical reference that I didn't catch, but I still think it's ill-considered. I will email in future. Thanks!
