When we interview potential developers, it’s amazing to me how many can’t answer questions that every student in a sophomore level computer science course should be able to answer. Developers are very quite when bugs, features, changes are being discussed and only come back with questions later. I used to teach this same stuff.

Many of these founders have talked with several developers or development firms about their plans. Of course, it's way more complex than just these questions. Still, if you've not heard these questions from a developer, they are not helping you as much as they should. It needs to be a conversation.
