This is a post by Joel Spolsky. The original post is linked at the bottom.

This is such a common question here and elsewhere that I will attempt to write the world's most canonical answer to this question. Hopefully in the future when someone on answers.onstartups asks how to split up the ownership of their new company, you can simply point to this answer.

The most important principle: Fairness, and the perception of fairness, is much more valuable than owning a large stake. Almost everything that can go wrong in a startup will go wrong, and one of the biggest things that can go wrong is huge, angry, shouting matches between the founders as to who worked harder, who owns more, whose idea was it anyway, etc. That is why I would always rather split a new company 50-50 with a friend than insist on owning 60% because "it was my idea," or because "I was more experienced" or anything else. Why? Because if I split the company 60-40, the company is going to fail when we argue ourselves to death. And if you ju

[09:55:47] <taterbase> For Ryan Dahl so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten event loop, that whosoever performed async io could have eternal callbacks.
[10:01:36] <SuperShabam> There is no event loop except for the Event Loop alone; and Isaacs is it's messenger.
[10:05:59] <taterbase> I can code all things through Node who events my io
[10:08:07] <SuperShabam> Have you read anything from the sermon on the /mnt/node?
[10:09:07] <taterbase> I started reading it but I'm still waiting for the callback
[10:13:33] <SuperShabam> Waiting is an enemy to the Event Loop; and has been since the fall of threads, and will be, forever and ever, unless he yields to the enticings of the Holy Issacs, and putteth off the natural procedural code and becometh a nodester.
[10:19:06] <taterbase> Node is my shepherd, I shall not lock. He makes me program asynchronously, he leads me to more memory effecient code, he restores my process. He guides me in events of streams for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the

Since this is on Hacker News and reddit...

• No, I don't distribute my résumé like this. A friend of mine made a joke about me being the kind of person who would do this, so I did (the link on that page was added later). My actual résumé is a good bit crazier.
• I apologize for the use of _t in my types. I spend a lot of time at a level where I can do that; "reserved for system libraries? I am the system libraries".
• Since people kept complaining, I've fixed the assignments of string literals to non-const char *s.
• My use of type * name, however, is entirely intentional.
• If you're using an older compiler, you might have trouble with the anonymous unions and the designated initializers - I think gcc 4.4 requires some extra braces to get them working together. Anything reasonably recent should work fine. Clang and gcc (newer than 4.4, at le

1. Ich denke, also ist es nicht XGH.
In XGH wird nicht gedacht, es wird das erste gemacht, was in den Sinn kommt. Es gibt auch keine zweite Option, die erste ist schneller.

2. Es gibt 3 Wege ein Problem zu lösen: den richtigen Weg, den falschen Weg und den XGH Weg, welcher exakt wie der falsche ist, aber schneller.
