On the contrary, I think randall, commenting previously, highlighted perfectly well how it relates to startup commentary. HN is very much about accelerated startups and investor attraction I think, but there are those who also want to work differently.
I've had debates with friends and associates on exactly that topic in the past, about whether or not it's smarter to inject money, or just run your business.
There was definitely the intellectual argument that came up. Equating a difference of values to a difference of intelligence or wisdom is a hallmark of the inexperienced. In my opinion, those who do so invite themselves to peril.
