- walrus01 9y agoI just took a look at the currently frontpaged "Who's hiring" thread. Lots of software development, of course. Hardware startups are costly and hard.

- gedmark 9y agoWe're lucky to work with a great group of investors-- the investors we work with at Andreessen Horowitz both have PhD's, one in CS, the other in EE. Our investor at Lux Capital has a PhD in RF engineering. Another of our investors has a PhD in particle physics. Couldn't ask for a more knowledgable, technically minded group.
