I just really like to see more of the startup related stuff on HN.

I know that talking about content and your preference of things posted to HN is discouraged but I need to mention that for me personally, it's really helped me in the past to see other people talking about this stuff.

I live in South Africa and there isn't a huge startup scene here.

Checking out HN every couple of days and seeing stuff about other people going through the startup phases played a role in getting me to the point where I believed I could do it.

I failed but even then, I knew that failure wasn't the end. I learned that here. I saw Eric Reis book recommended here and I lurked on several thread where people discussed the trials and tribulations they were going through.

I discovered fakegrimlock here and he showed me the importance of being on fire, why I must burn.

Nice post, thanks.
