After what happened, doesn't it seem obvious that Pinboard in YCF wouldn't work out, 20k or no? So dang did the right thing by giving him the money, and Maciej donated it because he didn't want to win for the money (as be said repeatedly).
- nickpsecurity 10y ago"want to win for the money (as be said repeatedly)." He said both: that he wasn't doing it for the money, that he wanted the money, and things he could spend it on for Pinboard. If he didn't want the money, then it's a decent outcome. His comments and Twitter feed implied to me otherwise.
- samth 10y agoMaciej said, beforehand, that he thought the YCF+money would be an opportunity for Pinboard. Afterward, he said (a) that he wanted to get what he deserved as a the winner, phrased as "give me my 20k", and (b) that he didn't actually need $20,000 as an investment with no other context. Both of these positions seem eminently reasonable.
