I agree with theinternetman that this idea was ill-conceived and easily replicable.
An idea is way more than just one line (uber for X). My idea of an idea is insights into the market, designs for the MVP, and marketing strategy all in one.
PS if you want to discuss startup ideas let me know
Location: USA
Remote: Yes
Willing to relocate: Perhaps
Technologies: Swift, iOS
Résumé/CV: https://github.com/makthrow?tab=repositories
Email: makthrow@gmail.comAT least with Parse they had an iOS SDK and tutorials. With kinto or couchdb/couchbase i don't even know where to begin.
The thing is, there are articles guiding me through using Firebase. I'm not sure there are articles telling me how to setup mongodb and where
I dont' think running my own servers with Parse is viable as Parse won't be updated from now on while other BaaS will stay updated and keep improving
If you start with a flawed idea there's no saving you, no matter how hard you try.
your email is missing an 'e' at the end of 'private' btw
if not, what were you doing with the 7 projects that failed?
also seems to be the home of pretty girls posting selfies and getting validation from that.
it's like a cooler, more upscale version of facebook. Insta is hugely popular from what I'm seeing
i might try it as a learning project
Is that feature included?
any way to contact you
BTW, can anyone give me perspective on what it would take to recreate this in Python? As a learning exercise
Is it possible to do? how long would it take for someone relatively new, etc.
android and iphone
Why would you get paid less? Deflation means the wage you get paid is worth more. Inflation means the wage you get paid is worth less.

The problem as stated sometimes leaves out crucial information that affects the outcome.
Example:
Game show, 3 doors. Contestant chooses one door. The host opens another door, which has a goat. Do you switch?
In this situation, it is not explained whether the host randomly picked one of the two remaining doors to open, without knowledge that one of them would contain a goat. This is the key missing information. If the host ALWAYS reveals the goat, then it is beneficial to switch as 2 out of 3 times the contestant wins by switching.
However, if the host is simply opening another door at random, and the door happens to contain a goat, then there is no advantage to switching, as the odds are 50/50.
edit: it appears that from the original version of the problem stated in Parade magazine, the implication is that the host knowingly reveals a goat.
"Suppose you're on a game show, and you're given the choice of three doors: Behind one door is a car; behind the others, goats. You pick a door, say No. 1, and the host, who knows what's behind the doors, opens another door, say No. 3, which has a goat. He then says to you, "Do you want to pick door No. 2?" Is it to your advantage to switch your choice?"
