You know, sometimes an idea doesn't have to make money. It can be a purely academic question, and the answer can produce a breakthrough. Requiring everything to make money is how you get into artificial minima and maxima. It's detrimental to discovery.
It does, however, have to be testable.
- ge96 2y agoI'm only fixated on money because I made myself in debt, unfortunately that's my primary driver atm. But me equating money with reality well that's what keeps you alive/shelter unless you're self-sustaining somehow like a homesteader edit: the other bit on reality, has to be reproducible against science Personal annecdote too, before I became a developer I had all these crazy ideas/high traffic websites to make when I was younger. Later on I'm at that point where I can "make anything" (CRUD realm) but now I don't have that same blind ambition/energy anymore. Reality is like "will it make money?" I get joy is a driver too but yeah.
