I usually roll my eyes at the "listicle" type of journalism but this list is quite impressive. It does paint a better picture as to why Peter Thiel is viewed as such a contrarian.

I think it is best to optimize for collisions. Meaning, be in places where people running into to each to do interesting things just happens naturally. This phenomenon takes place in elite universities and startup hubs.

You need to get out! I'm in the Midwest too and am planning my escape route.

I believe in the post he said that his views are by no means nationalistic and that he feels someplace like Atlanta has the same problem as Munich. But I actually think this was in a "Startup Hubs" essay.

I agree. I think if you're someone who really wants to make an impact with technology then get around people like you and stop trying to make the people around you like you. At this point, I am talking to myself :)

This is one of my favorite ever PG posts. It's what is driving me to get out to the East Coast as soon as possible and eventually the Bay Area.

Thanks. I totally agree and will share so with them. Execution is everything and we were so early that no agreements were made. I also do think it would be wise to get their leave in writing. You don't want a founder to come back later

I recently watched an interview with Brian Chesky (Airbnb) and he said how he's only as smart as those he surrounds himself with. I'm finding that out the hard way. It's a big world and the people around you are not the only

I'm in the same boat with my co-founders and totally agree. It's a tech startup and that requires a certain degree of savvy. I mean, if the company is successful you will hire more engineers. If they are clueless that should be a

Yeah I don't think so. They are just not that motivated and I am. We have not incorporated so I don't know if that is a good or bad thing.

My goal is to build build a great company that makes housing easy for students. They don't buy into the scope and hard work involved. I think compensation for their 20% is fair but we have not even incorporated yet?
