No, what you have done is to post on a discussion board a request for a technical co-founder. What you clearly have not done is perform a search on that discussion board for previous cases where people have asked for technical co-founders, or people have posted articles about why it's hard to find technical co-founders, or articles about why asking for a technical co-founder is bound to fail.
