Completely agreed - I am on a similar path as the author and have been sticking with the above. Outsource only when the pain becomes real. I also believe that having done some of the work before hand helps you manage the other person better. Learning a lot of the stuff initially isn't a bad idea if you can afford it time-wise and cost-wise.
My biggest hurdle is not having a co-founder so far (I quit my job 4 months ago). I've tried looking in my friend circle. There are so many operational aspects that can easily split while I do the hard engineering.
- arthurcolle 8y agobut then you don't learn as much in terms of development... its fine if you just want to run a business but at the end of the day if you aren't spending a lot of time in the weeds of things then you aren't going to gain that domain expertise. of course, you can take this too far and then end up doing too much nonsense devops instead of actually developing new software, but still - outsource too much and you don't really learn as much.
