Why does he have to back it up? Null hypothesis, "There are no good startups", right?
- tptacek 14y agoUncharitably: what he's saying is that there only a few startups he considers good that he can name off the top of his head.
- michaelochurch 14y agoWhy is that uncharitable? It's fairly true. I am sure there are a lot of great companies out there that I've never heard of.
- tptacek 14y agoWow, what a dishonest response. Your attempt to repurpose the premise of my comment as if had been yours to begin with ignores your actual assertion, which is "but there are only a few of those [good startups] in existence". I apologize in advance if you are like that guy in that movie who lost his long-term memory and therefore could only remember the last hour of his life and therefore only had my comment to go on in composing that response.
