You don't need to code to build a tech product (opens in new tab)

Sure, but what kind of product? Just got off of their site:

  →so, how much do experts make?

  Kennethdewittsi: very little, very few people actually have work that they are willing to pay for

  →haaaaa

  →so, you folks are monetizing the existing programming chat channels I'd see in IRC?

EDIT:

No reply after 5 minutes.

This kind of seems like a scam for squeezing extra dollars off of friendly developers. Sponging off free work.

Folks, don't support parasites.

Opening paragraphs: "When building products you should measure your progress by the assumptions you’ve managed to test, and not by how many lines of code you’ve written.

In some cases — if it’s possible to validate the idea using existing tools — writing code might actually slow you down, and should be avoided."

Worth reading if only for that. I could write an essay on why sitting around & thinking can be far more productive when it comes to coding, rather than -actually- coding.
