you're making the same assumption I disagreed with two comments ago. to me, getting banned is not the negative part of the experience. the negative part of the experience is the bad habit of coming back to engage in…

You people on Hacker News need to figure something out about me. I don't address the obvious objections, because they're obvious. I just solve them and move on. This objection is so easy to solve it's not worth talking…
Yes! I shall call it "Viaweb." (Just kidding.)
Yeah, it's the Four-Hour Work Week thing. All you need is a business model which requires neither time nor energy and you're fucking DONE. So many lazy thinkers on a site like this. I never said I was starting…
