i only use my talents for the good of the humanity. -

That is actually quite accurate.
In fact, I majored in psychology, minored in philosophy, and took a bunch of business administration classes as electives (didn't quite do a full minor).
Yes, the job recruiters were beating down my door. :p
I found that a more practical self-taught skill (programming) was infinitely more practical.
That being said, though, I love psychology and philosophy. I have no regrets about that. -
2018-10-28 at 9:28 PM UTCYeah lol, maybe that business management minor covered the idea of supply and demand. Turns out the supply of app ideas is a fucking unending ocean making the demand for programmers to work on app ideas for
sweat equityfree is super high. Your chances of picking up a competent developer with "I have a great money making idea, PM me for details" is zero.

pg was actually an early investor in abnb, not its founder. AFAIK vaiweb was the last company pg actually started before YC. -

I can't even count the number of people that respond to my being a developer with "omg I have a brilliant app idea."
Still though, you never know, they might actually have the next Uber or Airbnb idea. I'm willing to hear them out. -

I have a generalized ideology about what it would entail. That's where you all come in. I don't know-how to make apps or programs
I need someone who does. I'm very good with marketing and have an pretty specific idea. If someone can help me and it takes off you will be directly added have a half owner.
Don't want to go into it her due to the sensitive as of yet unpattened idea.
If you read this and feel you could help message me. Thank you
Been done already
The Oculus Rift virtual reality equipment began shipping Monday for those who preordered or contributed to the original Kickstarter campaign. Oculus, which is owned by Facebook, has called today “a historic moment” in a release, adding, “soon, people all over the world will be experiencing fully immersive VR in their own homes.”
By which they mean porn, of course.
Sure, there are plenty of VR experiences that will allow users to step into fantastic worlds, jump out of planes or mimic daring stunts, all from the safety of their home. But where goes technological advancement, there also goes pornographic advancement. Plenty of third-party extensions allowing Oculus users to get a virtual lap dance or do the nasty with a digital partner have already been made available, and some intricate systems even incorporate gripping robots and Fleshlight-esque devices to take the experience one step further. -

Originally posted by MORALLY SUPERIOR BEING 2.0 - The GMO Reckoning OP, unfortunately ideas are worth nothing, execution is the most important thing. Probably no one will steal your idea without involving you in it, but most people will be turned off by you trying to keep your idea secret - people just don't care.
Yes I know that you. This isn't my first rodeo. Something's I have come up with have been are not an app. I have no idea how to program -
2018-10-30 at 12:50 AM UTCLike I said to you via PM, there's more to your idea than just writing the app. I won't go into specifics in the thread here, out of respect for confidentiality and all, but you have a few things you have to sort out before you can even get to the app-writing part.
