Care to explain? :) What kind of business did you have? Did it work out? And what's the problem in doing it again?

I'd much rather be in the position of having too much demand for a badly build piece of software then an awesome team, VC funds and a beautiful Elixir architecture with no demand. Reminds me of this post [1] that hit the top pages yest

That's a great point, and something I've pondered over the last 2 days (I got the same impression). Any idea why? Perhaps the hidden expectation that a collaboration like this magically will eliminate all my/your own barriers

Rectified this on my website, and apologies to parametrek for getting it wrong (and suggesting the project failed). Only found some sparse information online, and failed to do my homework properly after that. It's a pity hmexx didn

Yep. Looking for something "side-project worthy"; something that can be build in a reasonable amount of time and generate an interesting revenue stream. I don't mind which market but am specifically looking for a niche, a pie

That's a cool project! Mind sharing how you get your customers?

I think the quality of the average HN user is pretty high, but obviously this might attract low-quality proposals. Honestly every offer to code someone's idea will (I've been there, and fallen for it more then once), take what &qu

Sounds like something that might have potential! (the subcontractor idea, the mindfulness reminder is something you can't really monetize and most likely exists already) Any experience in the wedding subcontractor field? I'd love

Multiple ideas - maybe, totally depends on what comes up. Though it would change the intention of the deal, flipping around the deal wouldn't be something I'd say no to right away. It's a proposition after all, not a ridged s

Sorry to hear about your experience. That's one of the main things that puts me off about the current startup/VC relationship. I am not a Silicon Valley kid though, don't want to be, and this isn't going to be a unicorn.

Similar indeed, though I'd hope to bump into someone that is willing/able to sell it to their direct environment. Doing a free build/first customer deal seems too risky to me indeed (over-optimizing on what this single person

Thanks for your comment. I think 20% is a fair price for idea/validation/first sell and direct access to a customer space. If it's going to be a $100m company in 2 years then yes, 20% is going to hurt, but honestly I don'

Thanks for your point. There are a lot of details which need to be discussed but depend on the idea, clients, product type, implementation etc. Ownership and exact targets being one of them.

This is the exact feeling I've been having for years, nicely described in an easy to understand language. At least in data science and (god forbid) behavioral psychology, you can answer any question any way you like - statistically val
