The classic non-technical founder to developer relationship in its purest form. "Hey, I've got this revolutionary social media concept that'll be the next Facebook-Twitter-Instagram hybrid! Just need someone to build it. I'll give you 5% equity!" Translation: you do 100% of the work while I practice my TED talk about being a visionary entrepreneur. The purple lighting really captures the delusional optimism of someone who thinks ideas alone are worth 95% of a company that doesn't exist yet.
