there's a balance to be struck. just like some people work a day job to fund their side projects or bootstrapped startups, some people are going to need to do a little hustle to help fund their more interesting but less profitable passions.
i don't mind occasionally reading about it, as long as it doesn't fill up the queue and the things that are presented are of good quality and informative.
- retroafroman 16y agoThis is pretty much my thought as well. I honestly found some of the writeup, marketing and statistics of the "Snowpocalypse" shirt kind of interesting. I'm all for making a buck, but not sure if the I'm much interested in hearing about this meme/shirt idea anymore. Not to discourage anyone from doing it, just not sure if it's so newsworthy. I do find that domain name an absolute winner (no pun intended), and I'd keep it for some other project in the future if I were the owner.
- noodle 16y agoi'm less interested in this link. i'd be more interested in the details behind how this guy got this going, what he's doing, and how well its performing.
- hallmark 16y agoI agree completely. Without the background writeup, this is just free advertising on HN. Yes, physcab promises the writeup/postmortem later, if the site proves successful. But in the mean time, leave us alone? In the past week or two I've felt the overall quality of HN take a dive, so I'm feeling a bit defensive at the moment.
