That's a fine view to take! But don't come rattling the cup around going "but poor founders, so lonely, nobody to talk to" when they've made that choice.

You seem to be missing the point, as the prior comments are talking about "social connections" that founders get as a significant benefit, and which I'm saying isn't true.

Nobody is complaining really, certainly not the founders who chose what they do. In fact it seems like people who aren't founders that are complaining about the supposed benefits and lack of work without actually understanding what it entails.
