1. How does dropped out of college to start startup compare to completing college degree? From the mouths of corporate hiring managers, suprisingly well. Until we get someone who does these kinds of decisions to comment on this, both statements are moot. 2. *paid time. 3. 2+ guys get together and do something. Everyone feels the fuzzy feeling of doing something with other people covering their backs. It's the tech equivalent of jamming. 4. Yes. Money is the measuring standard in this thing. I'm a big fan of money, but it's a means, not the end. 5. Doesn't mean they're bad ideas either. Also, if out of fear of bad ideas, we stopped pursuing ideas all together, we would stand still exactly where we are. 6. Nor is solving crossword puzzles. It can still be fun and relaxing/agitating. 7. If your company doesn't take down the names of those people who completely reengineered one of your key products in 2 days, I'm very sorry for your company. 8. Hackathons are fun. I want to sit with a couple of friends and play with ideas. If you're doing it for the money or the resume building...you got different priorities.
