that's incorrect - YC tried a batch for founders without ideas and the results were very bad.
For someone like me, who is overwhelmed with the ideas, I can't even understand how an engineer or a power user can't have any ideas for a large or growing TAM.
EDIT: they're probably have ideas, but think that their ideas are not good enough, or afraid to sound stupid.
- sudhirj 8y agoYeah, I think no idea is a negative signal. Too many ideas seems more indicative of a good founder. And YC does still follow the invest in teams, ideas may change motto, I think.
- sudhirj 8y agoMy biggest problem with bootstrapping while still holding a full time job, not to mention a baby, is spreading myself thin on too many ideas, eventually not grinding enough at any of them.
