  Hi pk78 - I use the email to announce my upcoming product to potential users. It's also a free product and also a product for tech founders so it seems fair to me. If I cannot communicate with my users, then it's hard to build something. - 67 decks = 1210 slides. You are the 3rd person to point this out so maybe my English is wrong. For me, 1 deck is a whole presentation that includes many slides. Please correct me if I am wrong.

    Fair enough. If it's for potential customers, then it's probably better to make the email part optional? - IMHO, a deck consists of slides(s) so a slide deck = set of slides. So using just 67 "slide decks" would have been a better title.

    "Slide deck" is an idiomatic phrase in English, which means a collection of slides. "1,200 startup slide decks" means 1200 collections of slides. If there are only 67 decks, you would say "67 startup slide decks."

    I just realized I did make a mistake in the title of the HN post. My apologies. It should read "startups slides" not "slide deck". You are correct. I cannot edit the title, apparently. Sorry about that. Didn't mean to mislead anyone. It's an honest typo :/
