Jessica is my hero. Paul is a guiding force.
Every effort has some defect but it’s intention and effort which matters.
World would be a very different place without YC.
Thank you all !
- dowager_dan99 2y ago>> but it’s intention and effort which matters. I think I understand what you're saying, but this is a very dangerous generality. I think the HOW matters more than the intent.
- nine_k 2y agoThe idea here, AFAICT, is that the right intention matters even if the implementation is lacking and imperfect. If the intention is there, the implementation will improve. The dangerous line of thinking would be that a good intention somehow justifies doing evil things, and not by mistake but knowingly, for an ulterior greater and noble goal. But then the intentions would include doing an evil thing as an intermediate step, and, as the comment says, the intention does matter.
- milesrout 2y agoIntent is the only thing that ever really matters.

- EGreg 2y agoHaha wow, good one
- Apocryphon 2y agoLooks like the Dune show even introduces a YC: https://dune.fandom.com/wiki/Ynez_Corrino https://dune.fandom.com/wiki/Ynez_Corrino Incidentally, querying "YC Dune" on DuckDuckGo / Bing yields that link in the results, but Google does not, which seems rather troubling for the modern state of that search engine.
