You’re also talking in platitudes. Having a passion for what you do isn’t a recipe for good business, and isn’t necessary. It might be great for you, if you want. But people with actual experience have learned this repeatedly.
- MrOwnPut 4y agoThey weren't addressing my main point, so the straw man started earlier, no? Cliche HN words aside, they started with a personal question, which I can't answer as it would dox me. Then their main point concerned the lack of going viral, which has nothing to do my point. They said "Great products almost never go viral on their own". I'm saying build a product you think is great, fuck others bad advice, then market the shit out of it and make people realize how great it is. > But people with actual experience have learned this repeatedly. I have experience in this. The real pioneers aren't doing that. It's just a SV meme to maximize their shit product, it's the best they can do without a vision.
