You're calling a Python and Ruby programmer "non-technical" because he doesn't know PHP?
I didn't know the technical-skills predicate had its result inverted since I last checked it out ;-)
Kudos on reaching out to others, though. Can't recommend delegation enough, and I say that as someone who painted himself into a corner by hoarding work.
- jmtame 17y agoi was admiring his initiative as a coder. the takeaway was to have the initiative to tell startups what you can help them with, as opposed to having the attitude of "tell me what i can do." (this person specifically offered to build these two features, and did so without much guidance at all)
- ryanwaggoner 17y agoHe specifically says "this guy was technical"
- mahmud 17y agoI have neglected that fact in my rush to mock PHPers. Of course, the tone and context set by the submission story (how to contribute in the absence of technical competence) didn't help at all.
