Finding Startup Co-Founders DON'T

From the way it is worded I would bet it is two MBA guys, who never wrote a line of code in their lives (but know a bunch of acronyms), expecting to find a guy, who would build the whole thing singlehandedly for 5% of equity max? Are you freaking kidding me?<p>This attitude clearly displays no respect for technical abilities involved building a web company from zero. They are looking for a brilliant code monkey who would sit quiet in the corner and code away why they are making the world shattering "business decisions".<p>In my view they should get to know another acronym: KMA.

The News.YC headline for this is a touch confusing. When I clicked on it, I thought the OP was summing up the article as "Don't look for startup cofounders." In fact the article is "don't look for cofounders via an unreasonably demanding Craigslist ad."

This sounds like the good old "I have an idea, and I'll give you 5% if you build it" fallacy.<p>A tell-tale sign of someone who doesn't know what it takes and where value is added and wealth created.
