      No one asked for another streaming service because the market didn't need one. The founders weren't filling an unrealized need. Stop sticking up for people that had no idea what they were doing.https://twitter.com/paulg/status/1319301182796517379 …

      The glee about Quibi's failure seems to me misguided. Startups are hard. There's no honor in applauding when they fail. To me it's impressive that people so established would undertake a project so risky. Especially considering the probable reaction if they failed.

      I've been sticking up for founders who have no idea what they're doing since 2005.

          I once read there are people that make history and then there are people that write about history. You can probably make a long list of billion dollar companies that the market didn't ask for.

          If it had been a smashing success I wonder what the general Twitter narrative would've been? "Obviously a mobile first streaming service was going to work." "I had this idea in the shower years ago."

          You fall victim to a common logical fallacy.

          Tweet of the year. Thank you for all you do for founders Paul - even those (like me) you’ve never met and who learnt so much from your words and deeds

          I didn't realize there was a Paul Graham cult, albeit, I'm not surprised.
