But what was interesting to me was that I found myself recommending that each of them should have a technical adviser. Review the code being built. This is exactly the kind of thing I'm doing as a Part-Time CTO or Technical Advisor for startups. Strategic Technical Advisor. Why do this without the right technical advisor?

During the holiday season, our tradition over the last few years has been to post reflections on the past year and some predictions from Southern California's technology industry. Are there any technology innovations, gadgets, devices, software, that you found most interesting in 2018? I remain VERY bullish on SoCal's tech community.

I’ve worked with 30+ early-stage companies in all sorts of capacities (and spoken to many, many more), so I thought it might be worthwhile trying to classify the various ways that I’ve engaged in different technology roles in startups. It depends on the business, people, technologies, etc. Each situation is just a bit different.

I continue to collect great content that is the intersection of startups, products, online and technology. The United States is now a debtor nation to China and that the bill is about to come due. These are probably the two sites where I've posted the most reviews. One out of ten of Americans are out of work.

What are the biggest areas of technical risk? What technology research is required? What technologies will we use? What do we build in-house or outsource? What do we need to do to make sure we can survive technical due diligence by investors and partners? How can we address this risk?
