Is it important for both people to sign a vesting schedule from day one?

This seems like a surprisingly common scenario: The initial agreement is a 50/50 split, and then a few months down the road one or both founders feel that 50/50 is no longer fair. If a vesting schedule is signed, you never have to think about this or revisit it.

The point of a one year cliff is that you can say "Ok" without worrying whether the other person is ineffective. If they are, you part ways.

This usually kills the company, of course, but squabbling over scraps of equity seems to do at least as much damage. Enough that YC wrote https://blog.ycombinator.com/splitting-equity-among-founders... about it. And it seems especially dangerous if you can't both agree to sign from day one, before doing any significant work.

But perhaps that's that's too inflexible. I don't know.
I think this is where we disagree. In my view, individuals becoming more responsible and productive will always be better for society as a whole, because society is made up of individuals. The main idea that keeps people trapped in cycles of poverty is the idea that their problems are a result of society and not of their own actions.

And I really won't change my mind on this notion, given that my parents started up poor in Brazil and worked their way up to provide me with a reasonably good life, way better than the ones they had. And the main thing that enabled them to do that was their own mindset about life and just a lot of hard work.

The same applies to many other people I know, and the opposite also applies to many other people I know. There are people who simply don't work as hard, or don't pay enough attention to spot opportunities, or aren't financially responsible, or are alcoholics, or any other number of problems that are self-made. Those people keep themselves trapped in a cycle of poverty through their own actions, not anyone else's.
No, I couldn't live in such a city. If there was nobody to take out the trash we would have to raise more money to increase salaries for garbage men, etc. Some of it, I could live with less of, and some I'd pay more for.

Letting the economy balance itself seems a lot smarter than trying to control it and I think history provides many examples supporting this claim.
Perhaps those people perceive their back to be straight when it has been curved for years. Their sense of normal is warped and they dont have the feedback system to correct it without first adjusting their proprioception of where they are in relation to their body (and how parts of their body are in relation to each other).
Why not? Is Java + Swing very heavy or something? Is NetBeans in Swing or something else? I've used NetBeans for C, C++, PHP and HTML5 on my old Core 2 Duo with 2 Gigs of RAM on Fedora during my uni years and it was fine by me. It lagged some but on that machine everything lagged and it was a full on IDE (not just a code editor) with some really nice features.
And once they find another way of tracking me, let's say by identifying my face on any kind of photo or video feed they can purchase, the solution is obviously not having a face, or what?

Also, what does any of this have to do with my original question?
I prefer the old feel and travel, as it's more like a proper keyboard, but not enough to avoid the Thinkpad chiclet on feel.

What kills it for me is the rearrangement needed by going from 7 row (with web forward/back and a proper editing block), to 6 rows with keys jammed in wherever they can make a space.

If they had done the redesign of keycaps and backlighting, but kept 7 row, it would have been stellar...
I just bought a used 2013 MBP, because why not? It's not like a new one has more RAM, or a bigger SSD, and new cpu is only 16% faster. But it does have a shitty keyboard and no function keys.

Also, $900 vs $2,599+tax.

Not the same thing. JS increases the usage a bit. Badly broken JS may use a lot of CPU - but the author still has the incentive to fix it. But mining is a completely different category - it's designed to peg your CPU at 100%, because that's what's profitable.

This is very much the idea of these awful (IMHO) ways of distributing software. Bundle all of your dependencies, share nothing, expose users to the risks of exploits in the libraries you've bundled (and maybe statically so no one can even figure out you have done that).

Our current working environment is quite different now though, for the Luddites the only major employers in the area would have been the factories, and mobility just wasn’t there (you had to live within walking distance of your employer for obvious reasons). A trucker can find another job, and it’s not like we are going to remove truckers overnight, if ever, self driving cars are always a couple of years away and there will be major regulatory and employment hurdles to overcome before those jobs are taken out. It’s not comparable to dropping a new machine into a factory.
Character (integrity, drive to learn & improve) and skills that you respect or admire. Then shared values and life situation: the startup should be the #1 priority for everyone on the core (full-time) founding team. Missing any of those requirements increases the risk of failure.

Unfortunately for those without a wide/deep network of college friends, former colleagues, etc. it's hard to judge character and skills without a previous friendship or shared work environment, etc. If you're forced to evaluate a potential co-founder in the absence of shared history, work on something small together for a few days/weeks and see how it goes.

Another thing to do in all cases is to discuss downside/failure scenarios right up-front, and see if there's a sense of openness and fairness. Check out the books The Founder's Dilemmas and Slicing Pie for structuring the conversations, as they give vital ideas and precedents around formalizing the founders' relationships. It's much easier to chat about failure and equity before real work starts, and I've seen many times that it flushes out assumptions and behaviors that you won't want on your team (assuming you're the reasonable and fair one :-).
Thanks a lot for clarifying these things. Do they do any identity verification so people can be held accountable after the fact if something shady were to be discovered?
This was the last good MBP keyboard: https://goo.gl/images/ZDC9hq. The aluminum style keyboard was a big step back functionally. It was obvious it was done purely for aesthetics. And it's just gotten worse.

A small, subjective point of improvement: #fff and #000 are very high contrast, I find pages with a slight muting of these two colors (ie, #fcfcfc and #030303 - an offset of 3 in rgb) to be much easier to read. Regardless, I love the site. I've bookmarked it and will visit alongside my morning routine.

Indeed, building from source is falling out of fashion, with everyone creating a package manager these days. I find some of these very opaque, for example Rust has it’s own package manager which downloads and runs binaries at its own discretion.

I did, in 2012. I bought a $1,400 MBP because I was replacing $1,000 non-Apple laptops every 12-18 months due to mechanical issues - keyboards, hinges, power ports, etc. That laptop lasted until late 2016 when my daughter spilled a quart of milk onto it. If not for that I’d probably still have it.

Today’s MBPs? There’s no rationalizing the cost for me.

The best Apple keyboard is just "OK". Have a 2015 MBP, and it's OK.

I like your #1 .. my intuition was that spending 16 hours was too much (which is ironic given the subject).

re #2, I started thinking about how this purchase would be made - cash or debt. Also, I would want to know the cash flow of the business to ensure it could support the 6 month integration costs.

This is what I dislike about current US policy on nuclear waste, there are no plans to store nuclear waste in a form suitable for reprocessing later on. If nuclear waste is vitrified or buried way underground I fear that digging it up, crushing it, and reprocessing it decades later will be economically prohibitive compared to just using fresh ore like we do today. The French already reprocess their waste and nuclear power provides the majority of electricity in France.

Another interesting and, retrospectively, obvious idea I recently read about: Have a class 'CleartextPassword' around, which overrides all string-serialization as either a sequence of *s, or a hashcode of the password. Suddenly the type system prevents security issues.

Yes. Never enter a business relationship with someone without setting those terms, in writing, before you begin. Likewise, don't dilly-dally around with starting as a "side project" with the real, secret intention of starting a business. If you suddenly think a project is a business, then from this day forward, you set the terms in writing, then proceed. Nothing from before the decision point matters, even if you've kinda-sorta worked on the "side-project" in various capacities for years. Just make a decision, divide the equity, set the vest, write it down, and move forward with confidence.

You don't necessarily need to have a full "legal document" at this point (unless actual money is involved -- then get a lawyer or service and do it correctly), but you do need to have the terms of the agreement clearly documented from the start. If you can't handle this conversation, you can't handle business. There are going to be far more stressful conversations in your future, and this stuff is table stakes.

The good news is that this is all so standard now that you shouldn't spend more than 30 seconds on vesting: "standard 4-year vest, 1 year cliff, starting from today." Anything more complicated or deviating from this is a strong sign that you're Doing It Wrong. In certain situations (i.e. you didn't follow this advice and worked for a while before formalizing the agreement) you might set the vest start date to something other than "today", but again, it's a warning sign. Try as hard as you can to be boring.

If you want to hear something amazing, find a copy of Live from New York City, 1967. I'd heard plenty of Simon & Garfunkel before that, including many of their studio albums and some later live recordings; I enjoyed them but they didn't stand out to me. This album was eye-opening; it wasn't the songs (a bit over-earnest IMHO) nor somehow virtuoso individual performance, but the craftsmanship of their duet is beyond what I imagined for the genre, beyond anything I've heard from them or other singers. Perhaps their attention to their craft wasn't so obsessive later in their careers (I don't know), but you won't think of them or duets the same way again.
I really doubt they didn't do long-term QA on the mechanism, but I could definitely see how their emphasis on secrecy might have kept these keyboards in a room that was far cleaner than a normal laptop environment in many ways.
The lesson I learned from this comment is "if you assume security, you won't get security."
Snap is a proprietary format that is canonical-centric, don't tell me that the community make choice to make client opensource but official store both hardcoded (initially) and closed source.

On the other hand,flatpak is a freedesktop project, done using open standards like OCI and ostree.

Transformations between units are also typed so you wont accidentally use the wrong scale factor when transforming.

>it's not significant enough for me to jettison the entire ecosystem

But significant enough that I bought a five-year-old used MBP rather than buy a new one. I don't care about weight: I miss the 17". And improved resolution? It's the same in 2017 as it was in 2013.

2017 MBP compared to used 2013 MBP

CPU +16%

GPU + 200%

RAM + 0%

Display + 0%

Weight 4.46lb vs 4.02lbs

Keyboard failure rate: +100%

Cost difference $2,000.

So basically unless you need graphics, get a used one.
Good to know about ed! Since noone else has mentioned this, emacs' keyboard macros seem much easier to me especially since more than the basic editing stuff off awk/ed/sed i can leverage all the editor extensions and modifications i have accumulated over the years. That is unless its tens of thousands of files and the edit is exceptionally simple. I would write a script in that case too.
Likewise. This is super useful and there should be more of it.
You're close. The real problem is Amazon may become your competitor, with their ever expanding reach into different markets. And the last thing you want to do is help your competitor succeed. I think Netflix made an incredible blunder in this regard.
I get downvoted whenever I mention that the payment structure for Tim Cook is probably having a negative effect on Apple's long-term prospects. Does everyone understand that the incentives offered to CEOs often influence what they optimize for? Can we agree that the most widespread understanding of the phrase "shareholder value" tends to emphasize short-term gains at the expense of long-term gains?
Is it really such a huge burden to only get 95% of the rewards, as the person taking risks?

You pay more in taxes, anyway...

(And the other costs and risks in farming are nowhere near 250x the cost of labor, are you joking? Any situation where you're paying minimum wage AND labor costs are less than 1% of revenue is unconscionable, and I can't believe anyone would suggest otherwise. I wasn't intending for anyone to jump up and become a hyper-capitalist strawman, I was using a stupidly huge profit number so that everyone could agree that fair pay shouldn't be unlivably low...)
It’s almost impossible to reduce the criteria in finding the right cofounder. Likely the ideal candidate will also look at other person with an equally critical eye as well. I’d say serendipity and chance occurrence that the business is something you both want to work on and find regular intervals of success are probably determinants in deciding (retrospectively) if the cofounder was right.
Clearly you are a theorist and not a practitioner. Dealing with the real world is far more complex than simply a YES or NO. Take a look at something called 9 valued logic - it will blow your mind if you are unable to handle 3 valued logic.

Don’t get me wrong - theory is important. The models that you develop though are only an approximation of the real world.

A Core 2 Duo should not lag running an IDE. I ran Visual 2008 on a Core 2 Duo with Sql Server running and it had 4GB of RAM.

Netbeans and almost every other Java IDE at the time was one of my major turn offs about using Java compared to using .Net + Visual Studio.

In fact, I still use the same Core 2 Duo 2.66Ghz with 4GB of RAM running Windows 10 as my Plex Server and it can transcode up to two streams simultaneously. I'll still use it interactively when I'm working from home and I'm mindlessly browsing the web while I am waiting on something.
No. Snap is not a proprietary format at all. It's a squashfs file with a small amount of metadata. You can make a snap by plopping a file in a folder, add a simple snap.yaml which describes the application and then "make" a snap with the common mksquashfs tool.

There is room in the world for flatpak and snap to co-exist. We created snaps as an evolution on from clicks on the Ubuntu phone, and it covers use cases that flatpak wasn't designed for.
The E-Myth
What's troubling is that there is no rational discussions, its always "breast is best" or "emotional impact statement here"

Of course we can all agree that in ideal circumstances, breast milk is the best thing for babies, its unique biologically adapted (even between feeds) formula is impossible to mass manufacture and biologicals like leukocytes are impossible to add in.

However, if the mother does not produce enough milk, then failure to thrive concerns take over, supplement.

If mother is post partum, dad can take over and supplement.

People just eat the tagline these days instead of doing a basic cost/benefit analysis and thinking a little bit for themselves.

Add to that the seeming acceptance of bad science and you end up with anti-vaxxers.
Probably okay, as long as the default contract has a little bit of royalties. The article is about someone who used the default contract, but the default at the time sucked. Let's make the default better.

The risk of course is that there becomes a boilerplate that strips out such things, and it gets used so much that it becomes the new "default".
