Will Write Code, Won't Sign NDA

itwbennett writes "John Larson hears a lot of 'ideas' from a lot of entrepreneurs who want his programming expertise, but says he 'will almost never sign an NDA.' He has plenty of reasons for refusing to sign, but one that really resonates is that, regardless of what your lawyer may say, demanding an NDA upfront starts the relationship off on the wrong foot. The bottom line: If you want a programmer to hear you out, don't start by assuming that they'll steal your great idea."

Good, that's what the economy needs... people that don't want
to work, so that those that do.. can get some needed money.

Keep turning that work down, you're making America stronger
in the process.
