When Hacker News Brought a Visitor from the UK to our Doorstep in Singapore
- ColinWright 15y agoYesterday I met up with a contact from HN. He happened to be in Manchester, and I was passing through, so I stopped off and we had dinner. It's brilliant having these odd, unexpected, serendipitous encounters. Same thing happened for me last week in both Edinburgh and London where I met up with several people. I'm sure that sometimes it will be a social encounter with no great repercussions, but there's always the chance people will click and something will take off.
- netvarun 15y agoTrue that. Rami was very interested in our API and gave us great feedback in terms of the features he would like to have and some of the (technical) pitfalls to avoid when building it. It was a great experience and these are the small things that make doing a startup really worth it.
