I disagree with this post (personally). As a founder, being asked by a friend, "why do you believe you can do better than Google" if I'm working on a search engine is exactly what I want to be asked. If I'm founding a search engine startup, that's probably the single question I have the best answer to, and it tees me up really well to give a strong pitch of my core differentiation. At my previous startup (Heap) I loved answering "how are you different than Mixpanel?" and at my current startup (Airplane.dev) I love answering "how are you different than Retool / Rundeck?" By contrast, the proposed alternative questions, e.g. "How will you get your first x users?" are much more annoying. I'm happy to answer that kind of question for a VC or a prospective hire, but if a friend asked me this casually I'd find it somewhat tedious to go through our growth strategy. Just my 2 cents–I'm sure every founder is a bit different in terms of what they like/dislike being asked in a social setting.
