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.
I give up the big profit, I only care about "not caring for employees"
Actually my Firefox became super heavy and I didnt investigate yet why. The problem is not bokmarking but to have a browser that can handle it.
What I'm willing to pay for but cant easily develop myself is to add features from OSX to linux. Not too many, I'd start with:
- a graphical browser like Finder where I could color tag files.
- UI/UX: do something about easier configuration of the trackpad. Even when I installed linux on Macbook the trackpad does not work the same or does not have all the tapping actions instead of clicking. I cant even drag files/links to file-browser-sidebar/dock or such things.
So my idea is just what my passion is, I dont even know if people will need it. This is the only time I go by the saying 'build it and they will come'.
And I dont want to be part of such a group. Plus other reasons like the ones in the article like this.
Wikipedia says its for personal use.
The greatest thing I discovered about going independet is that there is a salary limit and above that money does not bring any more satisfaction. So there should be space for everyone, forget about competition and negative emotions. As for that limit some say that a few thousands per months is enough to live well. Well for me even one thousand usd/eur is enougn because I rarely make more that that as employee. Just get used with copy cats there is no escape.
Although his concepts look nice on paper I dont understand what the solution is to stop people to breed exponentially. And then we are back to the same problem we have now.
I didnt even bother to move into IT. In so many years I tried just as many different jobs. What doesnt kill you makes you stronger.
You will be fine. Start a trade: plumbing, welding, wood work. Or become a photo model if you are lazy.
