You're selling technology short on HN of all places.
- bpm140 15y agoNo offense, but you appear to be acting deliberately obtuse. I am not denigrating the role of developers. In most cases engineer #1 is the founding CTO and has commensurate equity. The first hired developer, like the first hired sales guy, marketing guy or customer service guy, is the first person in an eventual team of people, all performing similar duties in parallel.
- andrewvc 15y agoYour post only mentions two people a CEO and a developer. No CTO or technical founder is mentioned.
