This article offers little in the way of useful advice and seems to be a bit prejudicial toward designers in general. A more useful topic would have been that design alone will not guarantee the success of your business. The reality of the

In my mind, design is one of those things that is really best learned through practice and observation. While there are certainly fundamental principles to design, there really isn't a technology of design in the sense that you can teach i

More than anything, I think the intention behind the developer fee is to act as an additional buffer against low-quality developers. Personally, I have no objection to it. If you're serious about putting time into developing for Apple, $1

First off, I really enjoy your podcast, so thanks for taking the time to put out good content. One small suggestion though- It would be really helpful if your episode names were more descriptive of their content. It's not a big deal, but

Not sure I really understand the distinctions here. First of all, no one actually "borrows" anything in art. Borrowing something would imply that you were going to return it at some point, which doesn't really fit with how that scenario w

I agree with you to a point (especially in this instance). On the other hand, I think there are certain circumstances where the laundry should be aired. While it could be said that nothing is fair in love, war and business, I, personally,

I agree that some of these services can be tedious to use. I think that's part of the reason I'm curious about the potential benefits of dedicated use. In other words, are the specific numbers important enough to warrant the investment of

Agreed. Looking back, my only regret is not taking more advantage of the resources I had at my disposal. Here are a few things I'd do if I were to go back... Hopefully you're going to a school with great professors, because, in my mind, th

A good nugget of wisdom. I would also add that investors are, by no means, the only people who suffer from this false idea of scarcity. It's very difficult to encourage first-time entrepreneurs who fall into the belief that their idea is t

Assuming the question is "Why is Kickstarter showing me all the projects with good videos?" The answer is simple. People respond to them. There's a good reason why companies spend hundreds of thousands of dollars a year creating advertise

For cameras, there are just too many options to say there would be a "common" choice. Could be anything from a top of the line RED camera down to a DSLR with HD video capabilities. For editing, you have Avid, Final Cut Pro and Adobe Premie

Yes, both Ruby and Python have active communities and are very popular languages for beginners. I can't really give you any further suggestions without knowing what you plan to develop. If you're having trouble deciding what to learn, I wo

I think this article makes a valid point, but manages to miss the bigger picture. It's true, you should love what you do. You should want whatever it is you're going after. BUT (and this is a big but), what you're going after isn't alway
