The first paragraph reminded me so much of jwz's diary from his Netscape days, which is one of the most important documents I've read on startups (and it taight me the brilliant term "impedance mismatch" for how it feels to hang out with drunk people when you aren't, which I last used in casual conversation yesterday)

- danielhunt 10y agoThe immediate redirection as a result of the HN referral on this page is frustratingly childish
- wyldfire 10y agoMakes you wonder if his advice is really worth reading. :/
- thick18cm 10y ago"you have to live in a tall building to see which are the other tall buildings" -- a wise man once said this is one of those "if you have to ask, you won't understand" situations. jwz is a genius, as insightful as you find him unciteful, and with a lot of relevant experience to support his worldviews. He's not for everybody, but true genius frequently goes unrecognized.
- hornbaker 10y agoSo lame.
- Cpoll 10y agoDisclaimer for your link - his webserver redirects to something not nice if the referrer is HN. Anyone visiting the link should C+P it into their address bar instead.
- gspetr 10y agoDoes jwz have some kind of beef with HN these days? It seems I've been out of the loop on that?
- 0003 10y agoWhat is with this link? First the actual hyperlink text goes to a redirect page. Second clicking from HN goes to a NSFW imgur site...
- SonOfLilit 10y agoExtremely sorry, forgot he set up a redirect to an offensive image if you link to this from HN, and too late to edit. Please try this link instead: https://www.google.com/search?q=jwz+nscpdorm https://www.google.com/search?q=jwz+nscpdorm
