Re: Do you need to be an expert in coding to build a successful startup??

I just spoke to my brother Thomas on the phone, and asked him (off the cuff) what his take was on Duane's question... He said... 1. If you are not a programmer, it is harder to recognize who is a good programmer, and who isn't. That means you're more likely to hire a programmer who's not very good. Both Ankesh and Cornell also mentioned this, and gave solutions that non-programmers could use to address this problem. 2. Another thing my brother mentioned is that some freelance programmers have a "pet peeve" of being asked to do things that are impossible. This is because non-programmers don't have a good feeling for what is possible, and what isn't. Cornell already addressed this issue, too! Anyway, wow, great advice here. Of course, there are still about a zillion ways to make money without needing to deal with programmers - but it's good to know this advice, if you ever decide you do want to create any "custom-made" software for your business and/or website...
