Software is weird in that way, because a todo list is just some "mindmap", linguistic, psychological way to organize data. It could be done with paper too, or with some simple process one could teach himself or learn another way.
It's very difficult for me to really grasp and trust this startup economy. The good thing is that it feeds people and that it cycles this whole ecosystem of "throw it away and try again".
I wish software was not so chaotic and uncertain. When you add up agile, funding and decide to stop spending months to think about the app you are going to make, it's a recipe for disaster.
I'm wondering if this whole skewed startup model is somehow profitable for some people, like finance, etc. Sometimes it really feels like organized scamming.

The best thing you can do is learn how to make decisions under uncertainty. If you don't want that, go work in a regulated industry at an established company. That work will be planned and predictable as much as it can be.
