But explicitly spelling out to your wealthy competitor all the ways in which you kick its ass likely improves your chances of being acquired.
But he doesn't spell out the ways in which LiveNinja is better, like others here, I was waiting for the comparison? He's deliberately held off on specifics to use it as a selling point for acquisition. "Buy us and I'll tell you what we learned"
This is exactly the intent of the blog post.

"Hey, we're better than you. We've been here for awhile, we've already solved the mistakes you'll be making. Oh btw, we won Startup World. Why don't you just acquire us already?"
