Meanwhile my restaurant owner friend wants me to sign a NDA for his startup idea. Oh God, why?



Being "unable to sign this agreement" is a great way to decline the opportunity to do all the development, maintenance and marketing for the idea for 49% equity and a nice meal in the nicest way possible.


Hmm... helping developers politely decline the amazing opportunity to work on a lousy app/startup idea. Someone should write an app for that.


We could work something out. I'll just need you to sign this NDA.


Just ask them to sign an NDA too. Afterall you might reveal something they could steal from you while discussing their idea.
