"It's important. It's not enough to just be a bunch of dudes hacking away at stuff."
I Disagree. This is the most productive environment for me. The issue is that people set out to start a company and not solve a problem. A bunch of dudes siting around hacking to start a company might not be the best idea but a bunch of dudes sitting around trying to solve a problem is the best way to start.
- Udo 15y agoI don't see the point of having cofounders in that case. If it's really just a bunch of guys hacking away at stuff, you might as well just hire them. I admit I'm on the fence about the whole "you have to have a cofounder" thing to begin with - my own experience with having a cofounder hasn't been that great (it's not his fault, or mine, it was just a bad dynamic in general). > a bunch of dudes sitting around trying to solve a problem is the best way to start I totally agree. Without a great and creative team you're screwed. This article isn't about those aspects, though, isn't it? It's about what else a cofounder should bring to the table that moves the company forward.
