You would think people (even engineers) would do their homework and find out if you want to do the "startup thing" you should go in expecting to take a pay cut and work 50 hours out of the box.

It seems like the engineer in the article had a romantic notion about what it would be like to work for a startup and had not done his homework.

What is your suggested reading list for the homework you mention?

You mean the place where I am currently reading people disagreeing on the validity of approaches like yours, that it's not necessarily to be expected?

Sorry, I conflated your comment with the GP's. However, you two would appear to be agreeing.
