News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

That movie is really great -- the title is perfect. I think it's basically a lesson in what not to do. Two non-hackers start a company and skip the make-a-great-product stage completely. Watching them it feels like borderline fraud. -- I bought Spolsky's "Aardvark" documentary and enjoyed it a lot, but I wish it had more YC in it. I wish YC funded two guys to make a documentary about YC. If the guys were good at it maybe they could create a product around that. Maybe something that makes it easy for "normal" people to make documentaries.

Amazingly, Kaleil is now selling business advice at his personal website. http://www.kaleil.com/ Aardvark sounds like an interesting doc -- so far can't find it online though. Indeed, they had no product... and 233 employees.
