Are the things that can't be bootstrapped actually worth doing?
- JohnFen 8y agoYes, for many. There are many things that are worthwhile but can't be done without a substantial amount of money up front. Most software doesn't fall into this category, but a lot of hardware and services do.
- throwaway-571 8y agoTeranos could have been worth it if it hadn’t been a scam. If you can lower the cost of insulin that would be boon to humanity, but good luck bootstrapping that. Better glucose monitor. Lots of medical thing are worth it from an ethical point of view but not bootstrap-able.
