I hope that when I die no one spends so much focus on the business aspects of what I built or the valuations


Doesn't that depend on what context a person knew you at - personal or professional?

The personal side typically will center on emotional aspects of being human. However what you do with your intellect is also a major part of being human. And that part is most often expressed only in our professional lives.

Celebrating a job well done and an outsized impact is a good thing - and if I may, the most "human" of things to do?

RIP.


HN is essentially a business development forum so it makes sense that's what people here would focus on.


It's also a science forum and a tech forum.


Luckily, you will never know, so I wouldn’t place much weight on it.
