2 hours later - still down. Is this "impatience culture" or incompetence culture at this point?
Ah ok, yes perhaps that's it. I didn't consider that type of "connection"...
Been racking my brain trying to understand what the purpose of this comment is. I'm not saying everyone MUST write something positive about the man, but I just have a hard time understanding what this comment in particular adds.

Why isn't the title of this HN post "The Starbucks Theory"? The author doesn't mention their age at any point in the blog post, so I fail to see why it is in the title.

I think people just disagree with your comment...
"Abraham Lincoln had a single-minded vision: Preserve the Union. Franklin Roosevelt didn’t really become great until he united America behind the cause of ending Fascism and Imperialism. John Kennedy asked us to put a man on the moon. Ronald Reagan was hell bent on winning the Cold War."

All of those examples are centered around war and/or homeland security and some of them don't have a lot to do with entrepreneurship. The beauty of the world we live in today is that we don't need a leader to supply us with a unified vision/direction; we have tons of companies simultaneously working very hard on innovating in a multitude of different areas.

There are a ton of problems to solve, so why focus on one?

Congrats Sahil!
