Good chance that being there & getting to tell the story about what happened- even if it becomes a tale about getting ripped off- could end up netting you nearly as much, be just as valuable an experience as connecting & getting paid for it.
- JoeyBananas 5y agoNo thanks I'll have the money
- pjbeam 5y agoThere's probably a TED-esque talk in it for every party involved. I am looking forward to reading the books written about the 2020s 20-30 years from now
- tolicodes 5y agoLmao yes. I don’t know how OP found my repo. But the fact that it’s on HN w/o a day after I made the repo is saying something. My GH isn’t exactly spectacular or well followed. I have basically 0 real social media presence. Yet somehow the inter webs tracked it down. I already got a few emails. Already got someone with a documentary interested in chatting w/ me and Mati. I have a lot of stupid and impractical ideas. A LOT. This might just be on the more practical side. As for ppl ripping it off - I very much *want* ppl to rip off this idea. I don’t care so much about the credit. I like credit as much as the next guy, but I want more than credit is for this idea to come to be, and help me find a life partner. The more ppl are “ripping off” my idea, the bigger the market for folks who are willing to connect me to what I actually want. You may say I ripped of Mati in a way. Mati couldn’t be happier lol. That’s why the repo is under Creative Commons. Go for it, fork it, use it. You have my legal blessing.
