Seeking Co-Founder for Declarative Application Editor
My name is Michael White and I have been reading HN daily since 2010.
I am an entrepreneurial software engineer who has founded two viable companies:
- GetchaBooks.com (2010-2012), a course-based textbook price comparison site that scraped BNCollege and Follett bookstores on-demand with optional course metadata integration. Founded with [Michael Lazer-Walker](http://lazerwalker.com) and [Richard Mondello](http://rmondello.com). I originated the idea and wrote the backend. Shut down after five semesters.
- MyGEDCOMs.com (2015-2022), a [GeneWeb](http://geneweb.org)-based GEDCOM (genealogy database) hosting site with BYOD, Dropbox photo upload, and unlimited generation maps on any tree or report.
I have also worked at [Dimagi](http://dimagi.com), a company I made up on Wikipedia and then registered an Inc for prior to attending college, and [Merck](http://merck.com).
I minored in linguistics, attended an AGI conference, and have been following the development of AI relatively closely but haven't used it yet except for a few Google queries.
I am looking for a non-technical co-founder for a declarative point-and-click application editor company. I have a whitepaper almost complete titled "A Self-Hosting Point-and-Click Editor for Any Functionally-Specified GUI-DB Application" in Python and JavaScript with a JavaScript-only frontend that builds on top of React, React Router v3, Backbone-Relational, Flask, SQLAlchemy, and Flask-Restless. Two of the most important additional components are almost complete.
I am looking for a non-technical co-founder to handle administration, fundraising, and marketing for anywhere from 15-30% equity. If there is a person who is interested in being a technical co-founder, I may be able to accommodate them.
Email me at appalchemist@protonmail.com if you are interested. What is up with your strange claims on this page? https://michaelawhite.net/software/ It's the truth, most likely, or potentially I don't understand something about childhood events. Sorry but that answer doesn't make any sense. Are you a bot? No, but I have read a lot of apparently AI-generated material without successfully identifying it as such to anyone else I know. Maybe we are seeing different versions of the page? I hear a very powerful entity may rewrite any page on the fly. Not sure if advisable to say. A network infrastructure operator with a human-level AI can potentially rewrite any content on the Internet in a granular fashion. Was hoping to get on the inside. If you have access to mental health resources, I encourage you to leverage them. Thanks, while not mentioning it in the original post, I was actually diagnosed with schizophrenia in 2015 and receive treatment for it, but I was actually told I would be told I had schizophrenia because the real condition was so rare or had no name. My mom has delusional disorder, which is non-schizotypal and supposed to be caused by a single recessive mutation. The 15 or 16 companies other than GetchaBooks and MyGEDCOMs on the list, which contain some of the biggest tech companies in the world, and 11 or so technologies were actually founded by me in a few days, weeks or months at the age of 5 or 6 after creating the initial implementation of the Python programming language as a halo effect from my paper "A Self-Hosting Point-and-Click Editor for Any Functionally-Specified GUI-DB Application" and a few other pieces of writing, a completed version of which I emailed to a number of prominent individuals at the time and (this may be a secret) posted on LKML as a lark. The paper contains a high percentage of "magic". I'll PM you a link to a draft of the current version. Edit: I think I am getting filtered so not sure if I want to email you at the address on your profile. Here is the draft, which is also linked from my CV on michaelawhite.net https://www.overleaf.com/read/ymsbmtwnydft#efbba5 Feel free to reach out, no worries :)
