Hi David, thanks for the article. Maybe poker, basketball, and Starcraft are highly correlated hobbies among software engineers in the Bay area, but I find it incredible that we share such similar interests. Starcraft not as much for me anymore, despite my HN username (though I still play maybe once a month or so).

Thanks for reading! Whoa, do you still play BW once a month, or is that SC2? I never started playing SC2, so I actually had to look up Artosis pylon. I def remember Manner pylon though :)

And hmm, I actually didn't think I'd find ANY readers at the intersection of startups, CS, SC, poker and basketball. Assuming most people on HN are interested in startups and computer science, I'd imagine that the limiting area of intersection would probably be SC ∩ bball (at least more so than SC ∩ poker or poker ∩ bball), so it's pretty awesome that we share all of those!
