Yes, this week. Throwaway account because it's not public yet. I've been active in startup land and HN > 10 years, technical founder with one exit. This cycle looks like it will be worse than 2001 or 2008.
- danpalmer 7y agoI’d suggest that it looks worse because it’s more sudden, and it’s more sudden because it wasn’t going to be bad, it just got all triggered “ahead of schedule” by COVID-19.
- throwaway703181 7y agoI disagree for the following reason: Unless we get terribly lucky we are going to have a prolonged period (6-18 months) of social distancing and travel restrictions. There's no fast rebound from that so not a big win even for those of us holding enough cash to buy the bargains (real estate etc).
