I personally sit on the fence here.
It's funny because just a few weeks ago, this article was on HN. Don't these 2 arguments contradict each other?

- scrod 17y agoDon't these 2 arguments contradict each other? Let's get to the real issue here: you seem to be under the impression that airing a variety of viewpoints is somehow problematic.
- xexers 17y agoThat's not what I meant. I meant, I am on the fence... here is an article (and comments) with the opposite viewpoint.
- andymism 17y agoI don't necessarily think these two contradict each other--they're really about different things. Sivers' article is concerned with the psychology behind motivation while this article and discussion is about the fear of idea stealing. I'm firmly in the camp of sharing ideas with anyone who will listen. And, ideally, with different types of people. If I can concisely explain my idea with someone who doesn't know a browser from a modem, then that's when I know I've really thought through my idea. That would be impossible if you're walking around with entrepreneur paranoia.
