Apologies and I don’t mean this as a snarky question, but I have been asked to be a part of a lot of start ups, because you know “I can write an app”.

All of the offers have just had equity is compensation. I’ve dodged the many of bullet, but I definitely would’ve taken cold hard cash.

My advice to a lot of them was "Get funding, I'll come work on the idea". How does HN propose they do that instead?
