great ideas help, but great execution helps the most.
- amichail 18y agoI wonder why we often have this debate. Probably most people who read this site can write reasonable code. So what is the problem? I think it might help to be more specific about which aspects of the execution are difficult.
- noodle 18y agoi think its a mental issue. in order to go full-tilt on executing an idea, you have to at least be able to sell yourself on the idea that its going to be successful (relatively) if you execute. i find that difficult to do, myself. it tends to require a "good" idea.
- mahmud 18y ago"Probably most people who read this site can write reasonable code. So what is the problem?" Business is not just code. Ask yourself these two questions: if ICANN or the FSM yanked your domain and the cloud/linode/dreamhost/datacenter went belly up tonight, and nobody was able to reach your website, will you still be in business? that's the difference between a website and a business. The other question: if you invested a few grand and flew to a conference and paid all your expenses to industry cocktail parties, how many actionable contacts are you able to bring? a business idea can be realized off-line.
