   Great analogy, it seems like you live right next door :)

   I think every developer faces the same problem at one point. What helped me personally was actually working less and find new hobbies (that don't involve computers), and one thing in particular: running. It's hard to keep your enthusiasm at

   You're wrong and rude; They are contributing quite a lot, they are providing services to markets that US providers neglect.

   I could pretty much sign under this post as well. Never understood why people even bother with quora, since StackOverflow&co. is free and far more easier to get going.

   Good luck resolving this issue. I wonder what it would take to completely prevent this kind of stuff from happening.

    Too much scrolling for the amount of information given, otherwise, good job!

    Great, I have actually found the description - tried to point out there were no apparent benefits at first glance, which should be the main focus on sites, trying to sell something.

    One big mistake, you show a screenshot without any real information. Wow! Awesome!.... What the fuck is it good for?

    Why did you link to TED, but not YouPorn? :)

    What I don't understand is that sources are zipped on github? Goes against the very nature of git (or any versioning system for that matter).

    Not really, I usually bid on TYPO3 jobs (I'm a certified integrator), and alongside with me, there's usually 15 ridiculously low bids, most submitted by Indian project managers. And they go as low as 10% of my hourly rate or price.

    Don't be scared, you'll probably end up working more :)

    When bidding, you don't need to go below everyone else - I go above every single time, and also explain to potential clients why I'm the best choice (top quality, deliver on time). Of course you need some kind of portfolio to back up your s

    This post misses one important point: Startups are playgrounds . You don't need to be the next Facebook or Twitter. You don't even need to be profitable (although we all aim for it). What you need is a team that can execute. Even if it tur

    while I read TechCrunch from time to time, I never visit PandoDaily. Stopped after I saw Sarah Lacy's charade with Zuck on YouTube.

    Apparently you're not the only one to try TechCrunch first - I did exactly the same thing after clicking the link. It appears our internal bullshit meters work just fine as well :)

    One would think there's not much left to be done when it comes to the boilerplate, but these guys prove there is.

    It was about time, always wondered how 'via' improved user experience in any way. EDIT: since I'm getting downvoted because some of you don't agree: There's like 140M active Twitter users (as of March 2012) and like, 30 clients (guesstimati

    I can relate to this quite a lot. Protip: Now it's time to go outside, the satisfaction of running outside exceeds that of running on the mill by far!

    I'm not sure if it fits the story 100%, but this is exactly how I felt when Sparrow got acquired by Google. I use Sparrow on iOS daily and I hate the fact that there's a possibility we'll never get push notifications.

    Thank you for the insights, but this post is way too long, you might want to split it into series :) Congratz on the effort though
