I don't think "real stuff" has to be physical things. I think Turbo Tax would count as software that aims to improve "real stuff".

- lumberjack 10y agoAnd what does a software developer have to do with developing a software like Turbo Tax? The technical part is mostly trivial. I honestly don't think it wise to go into any industry where you lack any kind of domain experience. Turbo Tax is mostly about accounting and tax law, not software development.
- wtetzner 10y agoAnd the technical part of Twitter is somehow non-trivial? I get what you're saying, but while developing software to handle "real stuff" might be more risky and more difficult, it's also going to have some real value. Also, I don't see how anyone could ever do anything without going into an industry without domain experience. How else will you gain experience?
