  1. I LOVE when people geek out about the most simple mathematical things*, especially discovering the animation power of the trigonometric functions... or any of mathematics underlying modern interactive stuff. It's one thing to know what they do, it's another to understand the power of that tool. * I wrote a similar article around making "blobs" a while back: https://www.hailpixel.com/articles/generative-art-simple-ma…

  9. Can you supply some details about the business-related dynamics at play here, specifically whether or not you're being paid any flat rate (or just equity), what your share is compared to the marketer, and whether you have a contract that puts you on the hook for anything?

  11. No, what you have done is to post on a discussion board a request for a technical co-founder. What you clearly have not done is perform a search on that discussion board for previous cases where people have asked for technical co-founders, or people have posted articles about why it's hard to find technical co-founders, or articles about why asking for a technical co-founder is bound to fail.
