My biggest problem is knowing whether an idea is worth spending time or even possible. Or just parts of it. There is no place to throw in questions like:
"I need this in my database but im pretty sure it won't scale, will it?
"I wrote this small gadget to solve a very specific problem that I use quite often, does anyone else have that problem?"
"I'm using library X, how would I subclass Y to allow path prefixes?"
- deadfall 13y agoI have this problem "knowing whether an idea is worth spending time or even possible". I you are not sure if an idea is worth spending time on ask some friends what they think about it. Just some questions I ask myself: Is the idea something that people need? Would it be a good learning experience? Would I use it? Is it fun or entertaining? People spend a lot of money on entertainment and some take advantage of these extremely well. Better than I, for sure. Everything is possible the technology exists. If it doesn't, how can it exist? I just ask myself a lot of questions, but the down side is I hardly finish the projects I start. With all the information available and ideas floating it is hard to stay on the rail.
