On: Earnest Capital is live

How is MongoDB a great example of a company shooting itself in the foot? They IPO'd in Oct 2017 and the stock has almost quadrupled.

EDIT: MDB will also probably get acquired in the next year too.

This is what happens when you only read HN, you think MongoDB is going out of business, yet the company is worth $5 billion.

Wow, I don't think I heard that MongoDB had an IPO and that they were worth $5 billion. Maybe I was on vacation when the IPO happened, so I wasn't checking Hacker News, because I'm sure I would have remembered that. All I see on HN is horror stories about MongoDB, or posts about migrating from MongoDB to Postgres.

Well put!
