Generally I ignore comments like these; a downvote and a click away. Perhaps this isn't an appropriate response, But this article does interest hackers and entrepreneurs. This isn't off-topic. If the author had wanted to distill the post a little, or even expound, its thesis would have been more obvious. It's clear, though, that this is about builders, creators, hackers and inventors. The type of people who hang around here. It's about a common experience those who've launched a service, built a product or worked on an idea share. It's an affirmation of the culture of builders, and a recognition that mistakes are made in the process of creation; fix them and move on. Sure, it's not written as an article you'd read in Professional Entrepreneurs Monthly, but it's compelling. It's not a contentless rant, or a watery dribble of verbiage. It's interesting. It's nice, for me at least, to hear about what others go through when forming their ideas into product. I know I've stopped working on at least one close-to-MVP product because I was unsure about it. I didn't want to launch it and see it be ridiculed and mocked: if it was good enough for me, then maybe I should just keep it to myself. So seeing things like this are helpful. They're encouraging. I enjoy them from time to time: this isn't an epidemic that needs to be cracked down on. It is not pandering; why would you say that without justification? Why would you tear down this product of someone else's work without one, small, paragraph; the irony is tangible here. You like the sentiment, but you proceed to do what it damns. But it's not just you; in fact, you less than the other comments that provoked this response. It's so easy to dismiss and ridicule; I debate: I would know. But far too often, comments are spewed out that resemble little straw men; micro-points within an article that are attacked and decimated. I am probably responsible for a few such posts myself; that's something I need to work on. Context makes the work we live in; nothing lives in a vacuum. Arguments are no exception to this.
