I would too, and hopefully they'll post in this thread. In the meantime, or if they don't, I find it rather amusing to imagine how an interaction with the Color guy and pgbot would go. YMMV.
I don't see why you think that's how an interaction would go. Do you assume you have them all figured out, and they have nothing new to tell you that you haven't thought of?
Of course not. I think you're taking this way too seriously. It was an imagination of how an interaction might go, with a dash of hyperbole mixed in, designed to both amuse, and make reference to pg's flair for directing people to focus on those important, fundamental questions like "Who needs this" and "what problem does this solve?"
Color may yet turn out to be wildly successful, I don't know... I'm no fortune teller. <shrug />
I'm with you. $41MM or no, Pham is still an entrepreneur trying to build something he believes in. In that sense, he's no different than many here. It sucks to leave something you tried so hard at, something you believed in. Some ideas work out, most don't.
