    Never once did they explain the most important step, the first step. They said vague things like "you have to have an idea and then put in the effort to implement it and show there is a market need for that idea" but that is NOT explaining how these young kids who have no practical experience, with a bunch of debt out of college, while they pay for bills to live there, are getting the money that they use to build up the small bit of infrastructure and paying to test the product in the market place via ads to get validation it will meet the criteria, to then pitch and raise capital for hiring and other expenses.
    I know these are tech companies so there isnt a tangible product they need to build, which gets rid of logistics. However the tech service needs to be built online, so are these individuals just working to pay for bills and have some money to finance applications, and applicable business expenses while they are building up the infrastructure to show to VC's to get that capital to actually take it from hobby to legit business? Nobody talks about this, are they just rich and their parents are paying for all this while they take meditated risk until it works out? If they where doing the former they would certainly be bragging about how they boot strapped to success but rather, most just skip this part and move to the part that is 2 steps forward.

    There can be service like Airbnb but for kitchen, where people can crash in someone house to eat instead at restaurant 😂

      honestly, not a bad idea at all.
      if you can connect with the food/chef industry and schools I bet a ton would love to jump onto that idea. Atleast locally at first where there is already a large amount of cultural background for food like a college town of chefs.
      I think this idea fulfills a niche for more intimate human connection with random people and culture compared to our ever-increasing physically-detached culture of this internet era

      This is a great idea ..kitchen cooking and frozen food in the fridge has a special taste not to mention the friendly surrounding and comfortable WCs ..and when you feel full you can rent a sofa and TV to crash ......😂
