That's just what his replies from the other thread make it seem like. Perhaps there is some more thorough method he goes through, but from what I recognized, it seemed very impulsive and surface.
And if anyone has a chip, take a look at his first reply to this: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1356557 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1356557
I'm assuming he knows that I do iPhone apps, and when I ask a perfectly valid question he hits me with that nugget.
- joshu 16y agoYep. I was tweaking you. You seem easily trolled and sensitive.
- maxklein 16y agoBut why?
- jeremyw 16y agoYeah that seemed unworthy of you, when I read it. If Max has a profitable business, he's already vanquished a key aspiration of HN's members, whatever the product. Only world-changers gain respect?
- joshu 16y agoI thought it was funny. I think the point of this place is to share and discuss the ways to make businesses. Since Max declines to actually tell us what he does, I get the impression he is engaging for other reasons. I guess it's the ego boost, or something.
- jeremyw 16y agoIt was funny, but also a low blow. And further, since the direction to Max was veiled, it felt like an indictment of sustainable/lifestyle businesses instead of businesses you just want to avoid as a growth investor. (Thanks for your other excellent commentary.)
