I'm starting to wonder if comments posted on HN are examined by algorithms and automatically downvoted. Like an attempt to mute stupidity and block malice.

Has anyone noticed this with comments they've posted?

Hello HN. The fastest way to fund a startup may always be to fund it yourself. To be employed during the day, and work on the startup on nights and weekends.

One of the early bottlenecks with this is lack of time. You don't have as much time as you'd need to work on the startup. Which means if there was a way to quickly exchange money for time that would be something founders want.

Does anyone on HN want this?

Do you want to be employed only 3 days a week at a day job while starting your startup on the remaining 4 days?

Or are there enough signs that starting a startup takes over your life, and that the only conclusion from these signs is that you need to jump in fully every week, which means being employed only 3 days a week wouldn't be enough anyway?

If there is something here I'm missing I'd like to know it sooner than later. Thanks.
