This really is crazy. I'm sure this will only lead to i liar deals for TechStars and others. Angel Investing needs to evolve.

"The net effect of which is to make "programming" an exercise in (a) wanting to do something, (b) realizing that someone's probably done it before, (c) looking up what they did, and (d) tweaking it a little bit. As I tweak I begin to understand, and to become less a user of all this wonderful mess than a contributor to it."

I wouldn't say that's what programming is. I would say that's a good way to just create something simple. A thoughtful understanding of the entire stack is necessary to create a solid base, but given the fact many people just wan't something quick his approach should be fine.

really good stuff! it's nice to see colleges finally adopting a new type of student and entrepreneur!

Really great piece; definitely a great writer even in a heavily technical piece like this.

Interested to al3x's thoughts on the RoR vs. Python-Django also.
