An idea is worth about 10% .... execution 50% .... the remaining is timing / marketing / luck.

- samsquire 7y agoI fundamentally disagree. Without an idea you have nothing. 100% of human accomplishment is achieved by ideas. For the record: I argue that ideas are not worthless without execution. Ideas themselves have value. It's just not worthless.
- willywonkah 7y agoDo you even code, bro? Even if you do (and it doesn't look like you do from your submissions), that fact is that if nobody tries to steal your idea, it's probably not a very good one.
- samsquire 7y agoRude comment. I code. https://github.com/samsquire/ https://github.com/samsquire/ My submissions doesn't mean I do not code. I wouldn't know if someone stole my idea until it appeared in the world or I finished it.
- willywonkah 7y agoI see a selection of tools you've white labeled as your own, but no software applications of your own creation, just your opinionated means of deploying them, were they to exist...
- samsquire 7y agoYou are very rude. My github profile has software. The picture you are trying to paint isn't here.
- waynecochran 7y agoI don't know how many people who have approached with an secret idea for an iOS app... I just roll my eyes...
- samsquire 7y agoI'm not talking about _those_ people. Nor am I one of those people. I'm someone who gets shut down for trying to talk about ideas. As you are kind of doing.
