David Heinemeier Hansson at Startup School 08

Nice presentation, but this guy is a pretentious, self-righteous douchebag. There's a reason that he won't ever be a true tech titan. It isn't for want of trying or lack of desire. It's because he has his head too far up his own ass to ever achieve greatness.

The thing about aiming at the smallest businesses reminds me of the long tail, just the other way around, being the businesses going after the small invidual companies.

This talk is hilarious.

loved it so much, but very poor quality no screen of the slides and sound was not sync

Some real great wisdom on here. There is room between mom 'n' pop and billionaire.

Thanks, this guy never fails in motivating me. Now back to work! :P

Ohh my God...The pitching voice of this kid makes the listening a pure torture...!! Simple unbareable...

This video reveals David's simple genius. I have never liked the tech subculture - "Make a billion being bought by Google/Facebook/...whoever." I still think a million is a lot of money. I hope that I would be humbled if I had command of that much wealth. Just solve a problem and make money, create some jobs for goodness sake.

I feel both dumb and more motivated after watching this.

This is one of the best motivational/entrepreneurial/b usiness presentations that I've ever seen.

The guy is really good.
