This is not burnout, this is professional dead-end our industry became because... well he kind of explained it in his post. It is amazing that you have all this knowledge and you have to set it aside, because of all the same problems that are present everywhere. And I mean exactly the same legacy mistakes that are made in good faith supposedly and now you have to show professionalism and reason and as senior guy accept it and deal with it. The only thing I am sad, is that I can't do what he did.

Heh. I've thought about this a bunch and come to the conclusion that it's why a startup based purely on ability to execute succeeds so often. It takes the right group of people in every facet of the company (sales, technical, etc) that have seen these mistakes over and over and refuse to let the company repeat them. It's not often you get that group of guys together in the same room with a good idea and a VC, but when you do it's a fun thing to watch.
