In fairness that's a bit like saying John worked hard and got into NBA now he is doing what he loves and is making millions a year therefore any student that has an inkling in basketball should give it their all and eschew everything else for a shot at the NBA. What happens to all the ones that don't make it? Go flip burgers?! Maybe it isn't crazy to opt for a more stable + likely outcome than "go for broke". I'm not knocking Slack. They've done a great thing but there is also a large element of luck in what they achieved meaning many things could have gone wrong which would have nullified their hard work. With VC fuelled "growth" you're always locked into shooting for the NBA at all costs.
