#2What does this have to do with startups? If you're an entrepreneur there are times you wonder how you can get through the tough times. This post helps put that into perspective.
Most profound thoughts I think I've ever read on the interwebs. Hard for me not to get emotional reading through them.

#4Really sad, it made me think that I'm going to die in some unknown day and circumstances...

#5For some reason I am reminded for Steve Jobs' Stanford graduation speech when he says "you will die one day." In the video, it seems to roll off the audience as a cliche. But, it seems to have tempered much of his career with fearlessness, and the willingness to take risks.

That's a fascinating look at peoples' reactions to this. A reminder of mortality split right down the middle.

That's another aspect of this I find fascinating; how this impacts people in an online world. What got me was when he said this was his way of getting out into the world and meeting people. Then there are hundreds of comments from people saying where they are in the world. That was an emotional gut punch for me though I can't really explain why.

the reddit admins have repeatedly stated, that these numbers are bogus. its a anti-spam measure to throw off bottting attempts.

There are many bots that downvote in order to promote other submissions.
I'm glad they have that choice, and the ability to share their story. In perspective there are many people in this world who die "unknown" - PBS airs the pictures weekly of teenage American soldiers who died in Iraq or Afghanistan - then there are those who were killed while trying to non-violently protest their unjust government (China, Iran, etc.) - then there are those who are too young to speak yet who are dying of starvation in certain parts of the world today.
Not trying to judge or weigh who is more worthy of a voice, I can only say it's good this one person got to be heard.

#10Okey this is ridiculous!!!! First the guy who patches a software with Morse code and then this guy who would rather have a AMA with strange people before he dies. News flash people, there are actual human beings around you who you should talk to rather than computers or an anonymous crowd you do not know.
