jahansafd··on Ask HN: What to do if you are ridiculously burnt out?
My advice is keep working on it. But work as much as you can even if its for a couple of hours per weekend. You'll eventually finish it. I've seen a lot of projects get done that way. Also, don't damage your health because you need to have a clear and healthy mind to successfully build and run a startup! If you think you're over doing it, take time off and get back to it later. Just don't give up ;)

jahansafd··on Samsung unveils Galaxy Gear smartwatch with built-in camera, 70 apps
I totally get it. It's similar to how I just keep a phone to make and receive calls. But it does seem a little ludicrous when you think about all the things you can do with a smart phone. As the number of apps increases, I think smart watches will be accepted and used in a similar way. A huge plus point for smart watches is it's accessibility. Compared to the time spent pulling out a smartphone from your pocket, you'll be able to to instantly check news updates, emails, weather and etc right on your wrist.
jahansafd··on What Really Happened When Facebook Bought Instagram
in order to pursue anything abnormal you need to keep looking for validations. A good validation for musicians is if listeners like and share their music. If there is potential then there is a way.
jahansafd··on Why Did Yahoo Buy Summly?
Very few people invent anything. Most developers with limited resources work with groundbreaking technologies(built by others) to create something meaningful.

Ideas don't succeed by themselves. Different people will build differently and therefor succeed accordingly. Hire talented people so that you can reduce the risk of failure by solving your problem better than anyone else. If you can execute better than anyone then you shouldn't be worried about people chasing your idea.

You only realize how much commitment is required when you get around working on a project. People don't really have the time to build your dream. even If someone steals your idea, they will only get to the first version of your product, you have the vision for the later versions and updates (you'll always be ahead of the game).
