Bend, thanks for your response. Clearly you missed the meaning of my satirical tone in my post. For that, I apologize. I was simply trying to evoke a response from the reader so that my post was not overlooked among the hundreds of posts. In that regard, I achieved my goal.
I value greatly degrees from top universities, especially MIT and Stanford. I do understand the difficulty of HTML and CSS, and I am envious of the technical geniuses that are able to build applications using them. My point was that it takes more than excellent programming knowledge to build a useful application for users, AND turn it into a successful business venture. Many programmers are great at building apps, but may not know how to build a successful business from it (Or, they may know exactly how).
I am not stating my idea is great, as I have not pitched it to programmers or users yet. I appreciate your advice on building the app myself though. Another reader suggested a similar idea, and I believe it is a good course of action.
I hope I have conveyed that the tone in my post was merely to illicit a response from readers, and was not intended to trivialize degrees or technical abilities.

- aintahacker 16y agoPlink, the above comment does not reference my original post to finding a good programmer, no. My previous comment to which you replied was in response to Bendmorris, "It seems like you're trivializing degrees from top universities, as well as overstating the difficulty of HTML and CSS." I was simply defending myself that I was not trivializing degrees, and that I wish I knew the technical side so I could implement my idea. As someone with zero technical background, HTML and CSS are a foreign language. It seems there was a misunderstanding in my intent and tone. You may better understand my position after reading comments I have made to others in this post.
