It seems like Paul Graham is being asked a bunch of questions not at all related to his field of expertise.
I point out once again that the only reason he’s on the front page here is his association with YC. He often has nothing revelatory to say and yet he’s on here due to the cult of personality.

People want to hear what this dude says because they fantasize about the pure-luck impossibility selling a company to Yahoo! years ago and getting to spend the rest of your life as a semi-retired wealthy man with ample time to write essays.
