> It's important to shut down bad ideas. Codecademy Founders tried 12 ideas in 7 weeks. Just 4 days before the YC demo day they came up with the idea of Codecademy, which had a PMF!

That strikes me as such an odd way to found a company. Founding, only for the sake of founding. I find it hard to believe that companies founded like this will ever succeed. (at least in the average case)
