If great companies were built by those exerting the least effort we would live in a very different world today. The early histories of many successful SV companies are peppered with a sour business deal or two. The winners are those that hu

So he is supposed to chuck all his hard work and walk away? No way. He should roll up his sleeves and put up a fight. No one has ever succeeded by being a wimp, except windows 3.0.
