Apparently what's true is more important to me than what can be exploited? I don't know, I find that to be kind of a ridiculous question.

- shawn-butler 14y agoThat's interesting. Given what you know now about corporate culture would your answer be different today? I'm reminded of the recent discussion on HN where it was related that a well-known angel would not participate until he could observe the potential founder at a social dinner gathering with his or her spouse/partner. This received lots of comments in support and followups that you need to be friends with your cofounders. Seems like no less a haphazard, wildly speculative way to judge s personality. I remained skeptical. If there has been any insight I have gained with respect to human interaction is that people are inherently deceitful when there is something they want. The better at it they seem to get the more attractive or desirable the goal being pursued.

- shawn-butler 14y agoThe context was that he wanted to view the interaction of the candidate with their spouse not his own spouse in order to guage/divine their personality. Dinner was just a pretext. Sorry if that was unclear.
