- sanj 19y agoDoes that explain all of the posts on this site saying "we're looking for a hacker!!"? And lack of any saying "We're looking for a business idea guy!"?
- imsteve 19y agoSo easy, and yet only one in 100,000 people can be troubled to do it.
- bitsantos 19y agoAnd with 6 billion people in the world, that would mean that there are about 60,000 people who can be troubled to do it. :P
- pg 19y agoI don't think it is, or probably ever will be. There are always 1000 details you have to get right. I'm suspicious of projects described by appending that word "out" after "build." It implies the speaker is underestimating the importance of execution. In the best projects, execution is not merely important, but even flows back into design.
- DarrenStuart 19y agoIf the idea is extremely simple and your team has talent then you could do a better job with someones idea than they could. I think build out is perfectly valid way to explain building more functionality on a idea. google didn't build ad functionality into from the start their search engine it was built out afterwards. I come from a family of builders so this makes sense to me. I also don't agree with being secretive, ideas are a dime a dozen so no need not to share.
- brlewis 19y agoYou're reading "build out" as "build an addition" while others read it as "finish the job within a defined space." http://www.google.com/search?q=define%3Abuildout http://www.google.com/search?q=define%3Abuildout
- DarrenStuart 19y agothanks, yes that explains it. make sense now :p
