In a community where the future of the economy is claimed to be tied to the growth of tech accelerators, I found this article quite interesting. In a community where tech accelerators are declared to be the start of the next tech bubble, I found this article quite interesting. In a community where Paul Graham Fanboy-ism accusations are often tossed around, I found this article quite interesting. As frequently as I jump between the above opinions, I found this article quite interesting. The article isn't about taking the high road. It's not about sticking it to the man. It's a glimpse into their thought process when they turned down something a good chunk of the people here on HN spend their time working towards. I don't think these guys are wrong for wanting to do things their own way. They've even got the humility to say that they might even screw it all up. But they aren't jumping on the tech accelerator bandwagon, for better or for worse. Since they are the only ones familiar with their product model, they know best what would help them. I imagine they felt quite a lot of pressure to take the interview, but they let their judgement prevail over the emotional/social pressure. Props.
