How I Made a (Summly Founder) 15-Year-Old App Developer Cry (2011)
- nns1212 14y agoAs far as "Relentlessly resourceful" is concerned, I am sure Nick D'Aloisio has "relentless" really nailed.
- nns1212 14y agoYahoo, please read :) "If I wanted to invest in an app developer, I'd put Nick D'Aloisio through etiquette school, manners class, drill him with social skills and most importantly, teach him the basics of how e-mails work (or maybe just strip him of e-mail rights altogether) and then I'd let him work."
- bongs 14y agoI am jealous. :)
- dmatlack 14y agoWhy was this posted to HN? He's been getting some attention because he was hired by Yahoo, so better remind everyone that he was immature and annoying when he was 15! Can we really blame him? Who wasn't immature when they were 15. He'll grow up, we don't need to bring up someone's every flaw every time they achieve success.
- nns1212 14y agoI posted this because I felt the quality of him being relentless really helped him to achieve this success.
- deho5 14y agoAm I the only one who was impressed at the kids hustle?
- nns1212 14y agoI was really impressed as well. That's why I posted this link.
