The Founder Dating Playbook
I find it strange to not just use your personal network to find somebody. I feel like this whole “detached cofounder” thing is for people making an implicit agreement that you both intend to screw each other over if you ever get the opportunity.<p>But if you’re a “product person” I suppose you need someone to actually build the MVP for you so you can’t really do that part alone.<p>Personally I’d rather do it alone than make a huge decision like this with some random. Passing an interview is easy if you know what to say, would be too hard to trust someone to not just try to get a free ride. And it takes a really long time to truly know someone, but it also seems crazy to me to spend up to half a year “cofounder dating” before you get to work; that seems like pseudo-productive procrastination more than anything
