lol, yeah. I don't think that if I was a founder I'd be at hacker meetups? I don't get great coding done there. I'd rather come home, have a simple dinner, and then put a few hours in after catching up with the fam. If I was trying to hire I would go to hacker meetups, but I think you can filter for meetups that have high-quality candidates and a good engineers::non-techies ratio. And of course, only stay for the first hour of networking, skip the presentation.
- Ntrails 10y agoI read comments like this "I want a couple of hours after work to see people I love before I get back to the very important task of more work" and cannot decide if I'm lazy, or the average startup'r is a bit mad. Doing a 10-12 hour day every now and again because there's a deadline is fine, planning ahead for that to be an average day boggles my mind.
- brianwawok 10y agoSounds like you don't pass the founder test ')
- wattt 10y agoSounds a lot like my approach. I've been in business for over 8 years.
