Start reading something else. You focused too much on money and little on anything else. I was asking myself days ago how some people make so much money and I dont. But I forgot what I have and others dont. I'm your complementary. I started 10 years ago when I dropped out and started travelling and reading everything. I know everything I wanted to know. But we cant have everything. At least one thing you can do now is to pay someone you choose to give you what you lack.


The question is only about you. If you have money, you can do what you want next. But if you dont, stick to a job that gets you closer to where you want to go. I dont trust certifications.


I am in your situation. I've been working on a MVP and I'm close to release this software.

But I met an investor, interested to invest, who asked me if I have a team or any plans. So they expect us to have a team. I'm the kind of freedom guy, thats why Im in business, dont want a boss, not going for the money.

But there is a problem with success. I fear that if it will be successful, I'll have to partner with a CTO as I'm not the stronger tech guy. And I will not have time to do everything myself.

What I thought about is to contact people I read on the internet, anywhere on the internet. Its likely that they have a job but you never know. If they have time to write on the internet maybe they are not that busy. And I identified someone that I would like to partner with if needed.

This idea with dating a co-founder would be very useful. Even if you dont find or need a co-founder, just to meet like minded people is good. I'm happy I answered you because I understand you.


Thats exactly what I told an investor who approached me. It looks like these people look only for money/IPO and demanding from us not only a product but also to make an executive team.

I give up the big profit, I only care about "not caring for employees"


what I dislike about crypto curencies beside forking is the size of the chain. Even latest software downloads over 1GB


Then use a light wallet that doesn't download the entire block chain.


I dont even allow recruiters to interview me. I never met a male recruiter and that is another symptom of the problem.


whatever you do, you cant satisfy everyone. As libertarians say, if technology eliminated sins, the popes and prison guards would go bankrupt...


Yes, I write it on the back of my CV using a small font so nobody could see it.


it doesnt have a page with all the answers at the end of the book


Well, if it has a page with all the answers at the end of the book, the course will be pretty huge.

Usually what I have seen is that 1. Homework questions usually have answers 2. And open-ended questions are usually for people to think about but the same goes for books also. Most books don't provide answers for open ended thoughful questions.

Can you specify instances where it is required?
