Yep, its hard to find technical folks who can build things, especially someone else's ideas.

My advice to people looking for a "technical cofounder" is always to learn to code—and not in a snarky, "learn to build it yourself" way. Having even a cursory ability to code and a CS50 level understanding of computers will give you enough context to vet the plausibility of ideas, and give you the ability to articulate them in terms that might interest an engineer, as opposed to just saying "An app for investing in real estate."

Similarly:
Cofounders looking for salesperson to work for commission only.

I spent years doing this, but I would still need / want a technical co-founder for my ideas.
Now I'm a technical manager who can code pretty well, but that's not really all that helpful to launch something legit and complex.

#9Question for HN: I cannot imagine starting a company with a stranger. There are so many intense moments, points of extreme trust, and ways for things to go wrong, so much passion, and so much blending of self and company, that I wouldn't ever feel comfortable embarking with someone that I didn't know incredibly well as a cofounder.
Are there reasons to believe that starting with a stranger as a cofounder will generally work out well if you can pick the stranger carefully?
