Looked up what he was talking about: http://app.letsqualy.com/en/home http://app.letsqualy.com/en/home. It's a todo list and timer mobile app for dads to spend quality time with their kids. It's been 10 years since iPhone dropped, the mobile app economy has hit super-saturation and app fatigue. There's an app for that and everything but only 5 you actually use. You can spend 12 months to learn full stack and build this all yourself like a high schooler. Or you can hire out $30k for an offshore team to build this out in 3 months. Or you can even spend $15k for a react native team to build this out in 2 months. Back six years ago the same thing would have been $100k or more. Then you spend all your remaining resources to drum up an audience and put in money making ideas ASAP. CTA buttons selling tickets from affiliates for example. 18 mo is a long time, could have turned it in within 9 months. At that point you have a software package and if you would then think like a real startup operator, targeting multiple market niches until finding fundable growth. But he chose not to. And kept at this for 9 more unnecessary because it's his personal vanity project as a "daddy and high-tech entrepreneur." And now he gets congratulatory consolation for how hard startups are. This year's nuclear winter is going to wipe out a lot of behaviors like this.
