Easier to go from tech to business than the other way around.
- indiejade 17y agoThe problem with this line of thinking is that a founder can have the "coolest" tech idea ever, but without any business sense (growth), he's just swimming around in the same circle, over and over. They're complementary skills, not opposing, and neither one is "greater" or "less" than the other.
- chrischen 17y agoMaybe it takes business sense to realize the potential of an idea, and so the spreadsheet selects for techies who have business sense too.
- TristanKromer 17y agoFunny, I hear that a lot but I did not find so much of a hurdle. I guess I did start with some tech. I ran a BBS, then stopped coding and did marketing in the entertainment industry for 10 years, then went right into IT security. I don't think there is anything inherently more complex in Applied Cryptography than there is in some of these absurdly obfuscated balance sheets.
