If a technology makes sense on the roadmap, make sure it can also deliver quality software that people will want to use today. Engineer the experience so you can evolve the product. For example, I participated in a VR demo at SXSW that was a retail shopping simulation. In his free time, Farouk is a beast in the kitchen.

I do know in looking at a little bit of your background, you're not software engineers, you didn't grow up in, in that necessarily. Todd Fisher (01:49): I was gonna say, I have a technical software engineering background. Um, you came from other professions, so I'd love to hear what led you, uh, to where we are today.

Two years ago I got the bug to do an online recruiting startup and I began the hunt to find a technical co-founder - a software engineer who works for no cash - to help me build my dream website.

screenshots, clickable demo, out in the market? Naval – Pedigree is just a signal point. Lots of founders are college dropouts. A lot of us in the room are starting mobile companies.

I do disagree about two other points: First, this isn't the "quora rockstar engineer" perspective. It's my perspective as well and I'm not a software engineer let alone a rockstar. I am talking about self-appointed 10x egostars, not real solid software engineers. It is at best a feature.

It is clear that good software engineers avoid you. NOTE: Software engineers are engineers, “programmers” are what you use to control the central heating. Really skillful software engineers do not use.NET. In March 2009, they launched a Beta version and demoed it at FinovateStartup 2009.”

But what I think was hard, and it was something he couldnt consider was that it would be harder to find a *maintaining* programmer, and how much it would cost to run the software, because of technical details he didnt understand. So, while your post is a good summary (of things that cant be learned quickly.
