Ask HN: How to find a good hacker/co-founder?
I have a very solid, unique idea for an internet based startup. I have some very, very basic programming knowledge, and although the idea is not complex technologically, I would not be able to do the programming myself. I am a banker by trade.
I need someone who is passionate about the idea and is a good programmer. I have some friends who program but all are already working on their own startups.
I know having a good relationship with your co-founder is critical to a startups success. How do I find someone?
Any ideas no matter how crazy would be really helpful.
