    Agreed, it cost me at least $10,000 because I had to pay fancier accountants to do all the R&D calcs. Not to mention the interest lost, my time spent figuring it all out, etc.

    The answer here is actually teach them to self-evaluate, e.g. What do you think about your drawing? Should we hang it up? Got this from Steve Peters: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wik…

    The same Unity jerk targeted my small educational software company and shook us down for $5000/year industry licenses because we have a grant. I had to let one of my devs go. When …

    No not all talented scientists are independently wealthy or have the charisma to raise VC funding. What you're advocating for is the return of the era of the "gentleman scientist" …
