While I don't disagree with the principle of this logic, can it be backed up some how with past examples? Were "the smartest people" really hacking on serious phone apps before iPhone and Android came out? (as an example)
- samt 14y agoYes, see jailbreaking. iPhones were hacked before a native SDK was officially available.
- jamesbritt 14y agoWhile I don't disagree with the principle of this logic, The logic seems to involve defining "smartest" as "did stuff on the weekend as a hobby that they later were able to turn into a successful business, product or tool." There seems to be a serious selection bias going on. Do we have any data on the stuff smart people have done on the weekend that never became anything notable?
