- jacoblyles 18y agoI didn't like the third idea. It sounds like it would have a classic "tragedy of the commons" problem. Each developer spends full effort for each dollar he brings in, but gets only part of the benefit. In addition, being idle has a much lower cost than it would normally would since an individual's idleness is subsidized by the efforts of other developers. This incentivizes each developer to work less hard than they otherwise would. Now the second idea is brilliant. I can't count the number of times that we had to email our clients private messages while we were on conference calls with potential investors. Having a way to privately talk with our clients would have been beneficial.
