How I Built a Payments API for Developers

I had been involved in sort of LISP programming for a real long time. Through that, I got to know Paul Graham, who of course was working on YC and kind of this other company we'd started had gone through YC. And so yeah, as a result, when we went and we built this payments API for developers, they were almost all YC companies or friends of people who we knew had gone throughYC. So it just kind of got a sense for kind of how I started up worked in the work.
