David Heinemeier Hansson's talk at Startup School 2008 on building a profitable startup. He argues for bootstrapping and small, well-run companies instead of chasing investment and exits.
Why Hacker News readers recommend it: For over a decade HN has pointed bootstrappers and skeptics of hyper-scale startup culture to it as a motivating, influential talk.
“The 2008 DHH boostrapping talk during Startup School is still one of the most influential videos on my career as a founder.”
