How dare half the nation have a different political opinion than I! It's time we put their feet to the fire! /s
HN is a great place to talk tech, startups and entrepreneurship. However I'm not really interested in HN's thoughts on policy, policy making, or governance. I'd rather discuss these things who study them, are in those fields, on a forum expressly for that purpose.
- ACow_Adonis 9y agoWhat about those of us on HN who think you can't just segment fields like that? I can't stand startup and entrereneurship talk. I'm on HN because its a place that attracts smart people that talk about a high diversity of intellectual topics with a common ground of tech experience. These days its often the high-tech savvy community from whom the experts in those other fields are likely to be found. (and partly why i'm here). And at the very least, I would argue you can't separate tech in any meaningful way from policy, policy making, society or governance.
- killjoywashere 9y agoIf you aren't prepared to talk policy or policy making, or governance, you are not prepared to lead any group of people, let alone a start-up, where there are no landmarks, so initial trajectory errors in policy are all the more difficult to detect and correct.
