  What's missing (maybe for brevity) is why it's important to have a co-founder. I find it hard to believe that they just wanted that box ticked and more that there's something else a co-founder brings to the table... so what is it? What is _actually_ missing in the formula for them? Also [0]. > "probably not good enough / won't get in" - you'd be surprised at how many people feel that way, whether because of impostor syndrome, lack of credentials, whatever—and often they turn out to be among the best founders. So this a terrible reason not to apply! Maybe it's not a terrible reason not to apply. /shrug 0: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40091622 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40091622
