Good news that you're working on the replacements! Version 2.0 is always better than 1.0 -- once you get the bugs worked out.

Best of luck. Kids are can be a lot of sweat and tears, but they're also the best thing you can experience in life. "Terrible blessings" might be a good aphorism.



Beware the second-system effect. You know, the one where a parent says "It's too bad that I never got to go to medical school -- but my kid is going to be a doctor!"

Fortunately, startup-trained parents generally expect their kids to change their business plans several times.

(P.S. -- congratulations!)


On the contrary, studies have shown that V1.0s overwhelmingly tend to be the higher achievers.


Cohort effects!
