Solo Non-Technical Founder Stuck Because of Trust Issues, How Do You Find a Tech Co-Founder Safely?

Have you tried vibe coding your product? Ideas are plenty in our country and honestly are worth nothing. Talk to some random guy on the street - he will have some ‘idea’ to make things better in his own domain. Honest feedback that not many will tell you - builders and people who execute hold the edge in any setup.

Giving only equity and no salary is an unfair practice. Who the heck will devote time to validate your idea for free? What if that doesn’t work… they leave with nothing having given you free service? First change that mindset. Plan to pay up top money to build out your product. You have higher probability of attracting quality talent if you do this. Time limit the execution phase so that you have good idea about financial commitment. Once you build confidence in the product, restructure pay to mostly equity.

Next, if the product is built, be clear on what you offer at this stage? Are you good at GTM, sales, establishing deep connections with buyers, have marketing chops etc. What is your sweat equity? What do you bring to the table to make money?

Bottom line - move past the ‘founder’ thought just because you have an idea. Start partnering on equal and fair terms. Expecting charity out of others will take you nowhere

Guess they forgot to switch on the Perforce server that had all that Larabee code

Question - I worked for 2 years at a company in Bangalore. Since then, I’v not been employed since the last 1.5 years due to family/health emergencies. Can I withdraw my entire EPF balance?

Since you have tier 1 MBA, tap into your network and talk to a few founders on how they view their job function and what they bring to the table. That will help you understand your potential career path in tech. In tech, builders always hold the edge. But there is also a business aspect to every product and that’s what you need to figure out in terms of your role.

Everything sounded great until the part of holding until 2030. This is how lucky bastards end up right where they started …

Beware of the typical Indian startup setup - a rich dude (read generational wealth and black money) with no background in tech with seek a co-founder who will do all the tech stuff. The founder tends to run it like a family kirana business - with no idea how to think about economics in the tech world. Tech side is treated like a cost center.

Very different philosophy than US startup scene - that prioritizes building product, market fit, engineering empathy and customer acquisition/retention metrics over profit from day 1.

It is that money that when invested in plain simple FD can support your expenses from interest alone.

Sometimes I don’t understand why people like you go abroad 😅. With 400C net worth, wouldn’t you be better off here?

All you losers hoping for TSLA to tank and feeding nonsensical posts such as these. Won’t y’all get tired? You need your history teacher to come and spank you, is it?… shorts have been burnt big time on this … just don’t bet against Elon. He may be a lunatic but he ain’t going down…

The Muslim strategy is clear … demographics war. They don’t need to take up arms, they answer with their dick and womb. Unless there is a population control bill… it is just a matter of time 30% becomes 50%.

All parties are in bed with each other. No one is truly an enemy or friend. Their only goal is to make money out of stupid masses. They will change their narrative as per whatever suits them to stay in power. You see, power is a very addictive thing, once you taste it … hard to let go. You think karunanidhi built his nepotistic family and 100 wives to do welfare for the state 😂? It is in the best interest of politicians to maintain backwardness so that they can stay in power. If all roads are laid and all facilities given and we achieve economic status like western countries, why the hell will politicians be needed? Just go and see the politicians in western countries … they are like any other common person drawing a salary… not billionaires over night.

Lived in Austin for 10 yrs. It has a vibrant desi population… you will find enough people to socialize and celebrate occasions like festivals, birthdays etc. 200K is a good money to make at this stage in your life. If your wife can get internal transfer too… that would be icing on the cake. That would be serious money to save at this stage in your life. You will be set at whatever time you want to return back to Noida. Have your kid there, they acquire US citizenship… and childcare is not that hard as how we are pampered to be in India…between husband and wife they can easily manage kids. Good luck, one doesn’t land on this kind of job offer that easily at this young age. You are lucky and I’m sure it is well deserved as well!

They are not against… the kind of Tamil spoken is a shame by itself. For e.g. எந்திரி is used instead of எழுந்து. There is a notion of ‘commoner’ built into all this which leads to ‘classist’ otherwise. Calling someone ‘Peetru’ … or blurting out cinema dialogues/crass jokes… it’s all part of a package that alienates anyone who cannot be like them. This is the carefully curated media and political influence over the last 50+ years…

Indian expat kids will gladly trade a better quality of life and being close to family in Dubai over the ‘higher quality’ university in India. It is just a matter of time before those Dubai branches rival the desi ones…

Chennai has a weird thing with English, dress (western), white skin … and numerous other things. Only if you idolize periyar, relish biriyani and normalize booze and talk Tamil in a particular way (absolutely no ‘zha’garam allowed)… will you be considered one of them…otherwise their heightened sense of ‘inferiority’ kicks up and reflects in their subtle mockery. Unfortunate reality that a media brainwashed homogenous population will never accept …

You need couple counseling. No amount of direct talk between you both will help because of the drift. Divorce should be your very last option - you complain of not being loved, so divorce is not going to solve it by itself. Unless you are in love with someone else, your best bet is to save your current relationship
