It’s fucking hard, and it’s not glamorous

"Fucking hard" compared to what? Things I'd qualify under the category of "fucking hard":

- Agricultural Farming

- Lifetime debilitating disease / health issue

- Being enslaved or a POW

- Living in a 3rd world country

- Moving West in the 1800s

- Fighting in the American Revolutionary or Civil War

This narrative that starting a company is "fucking hard" is all part of the SV/SF mythos that needs a smooth stone straight to the forehead.
