Many times in a start up its the human side of things that counts rather than the technology. And generally that is the attraction for outsiders as in those human relationships that get creaed an dhow they influence the technical creation. What I am saying ti comes down to some team building  skils beyond just computer programming.

Building a team is somewhat the same difficulty in building a person as a parent.  You at times have to dictate but at times do it in such a way that is a barrier to over come not a barrier to creativeness. Thus, you attempt to find out everyone's life philosophy or how they live life so  as to  learn certain mind memes that you can put those dictations in so that they appear as creatvie challenges type of obstacles rather than walls as in do go there dictations.

Most founders accomplish this by taking the main core developer team out for weekly meals. On, the developer side we too want to learn as much about the founder as possible because at times we will have to push for something to be done a certain way and we have to know what mind memes the founder uses so as we can put in that concept set of terms. I am talking about something like the book 'Piano Man', which describes in Fiction form the GE corporate retreats of the 1950s, that somehow always were contrived and fake but something that has some substance to it in the exchange.

 Thus, my lack of Friday posts due to the project meeting with weekly meal.
