Every idiot with a stupid idea for a piece of software is a client, but vanishingly few clients are good customers.
In different words: there are tens or hundreds of thousands of people who can describe software that would be very useful for them, but very few of those ideas would be profitable to fully develop.
Opportunity cost! Every stupid idea implemented snuffs out what could have been a good idea.
- ziggus 5y agoIf a client wants to pay my going rate for development work, then it's profitable. It may not turn out to be profitable for the client, but that's not my problem.
