Paul Graham is somewhat of a modern day hero. Forget the rappers and the athletes, he is the embodiment of a good, moral and sensible person. Great husband and parent, great sense of humor, and all of this aside from what he has done for the tech/startup community.
- peakdarkpattern 12y agoUnless you are an offspring or his partner I don't understand how can you say that, much less quantify it. (Your platitude serves as much purpose as this comment, but come on, pg is not a 'god' and this casual idol worship is a bit silly.)
- wallawe 12y agoDid you watch the interview? Jessica flat out states that he is a great father. And the fact that they haven't fought in the years they've been married once about something as huge as YC says enough about their relationship. My point wasn't to deify Paul Graham but to give respect where it's due. There is plenty of criticism doled out on HN daily, what's wrong with a little praise?
- peterwwillis 12y agoA relationship isn't great because you've never had a fight. A relationship is great if it thrives in spite of them.
- eruditely 12y agoThis is a very try-hard comment. Paul Graham is someone to believe in. Definitely a great guy/hero. If you cannot realize this, then the fault is in you.
- tonyjstark 12y agoHm, some of his tweets and talks don't hint in that particular direction. Your comment seems like a bit of a black white painting... To come back to the video: IMHO the editing and the overall interview style is aweful but that's only me.
