It would be cool to set hours per a week dedicated to a specific task (job).

I'm a freelancer with 3 clients, each having set hours per a week (based on my estimation) that need tracking.

It would be cool if it could suggest different schedules that work for the set hours.

I really like the design of that 'blog'. That said, the story he / narrative that he is suggesting is a little troubling for our industry.

It could be biased, but children (less then 18) probably shouldn't be drinking, smoking or doing drugs anyways.

I've been looking for an app like this I downloaded it, I'll let you know if it works.

I know you... Sort of, you keep showing up as an RSVP for the EntrepreneursDen Meetup, but you don't come.

I was not aware that Disney's children shows had become authorities on software.

I'd sell right away, even only 300 million is better than the nothing instagram has made since it was created.

Why don't they just focus on making the best product and stop arguing about who stole from whom?

Facebook comments are also bad for your viewers who don't have Facebook... Me for example.

If you checkout http://ioscodesamples.com they have tons of code samples, although there aren't tutorials there is a lot of working code that does various things, it might help you figure out what you need to do.

This is science-fiction coming alive, TrapWire seems to be a little like 'Minority Report' and 'Person of Interest'.

The twitter user referred to at the end of the article has over 600k followers, all the ones I checked had a quote as a description and followed close to 1000 people but tweeted less then 10 times. Makes me wonder how many of twitters 'users' are fake like this, this guy alone has hundreds of thousands of them and he is surely not the only one.

iOS isn't a controlled ecosystem?

I'd figure it was much higher than that. Over the years I've had at least 5 accounts and the woman from the movie 'Catfish' had over 20 accounts.

Does this rule also apply to the number of Facebook users? Is it more like 300 million rather then 950 million?

He certainly is, I was just expressing some frustration.

You don't know me or anything about me, you just know the contents of one article I've written. For all you know I could be Mark Zuckerburg.

I wouldn't say it's whining, its a possible perspective on a life thus far.

you just got to keep on trying, eventually something will work out.

Thanks, this is good advice - life is a series of small wins and loses.

Shamelessness is probably a required 'skill' for a writer. You are right about the having to do something in oppose to waiting for something to happen, and although my article may have made life seem one way my life is quite the opposite, I'm always searching / chasing new ideas and ventures. My dad told me that 9 out of 10 business fail, so I've always been of the belief that I'd need to try at least 9 business ideas before something is likely to work. I figure I'm at about 5 or 6 now.

There is probably something a little wrong with all of us being on HN on a Saturday... although I see it as entertainment more then business.. its what I do to waste time for the most part.

Life is a spiritual war, I've spent many hours and days studying / pursuing philosophy and trying to find answers that probably don't exist.

Try to aim for your own goals, not the goals of others.

There is some truth to that, but I know of times when I could be doing more then I was doing. Its easy to do nothing one day, when doing 2 hours of work would have made the day feel at least a little more productive and thus more towards ones potential.

It would probably be helpful to have someone encouraging me to do what I want to do and not what they want me to do. I've been pretty successful at self-directly myself, I've for the most part had projects that have been driving me for most of the time since I was laid off.

Thats probably part of it, I've always feared having to get a job at a big co. But at the same time, I'm not expecting to be a millionaire (although it would be nice), my basic goal is just to be able to work in a sustainable way, ie work for myself and be able to pay the bills.

A nice job could help, but I've never been really looking for a job, I tend to chase ideas.

You are right about the passion, I've always had trouble finding my passion. Interestingly or not so, the most persistent passion has been writing, so that has been something I've been trying to work more on.

Thanks for your feed back.

Thanks, I suppose part of the problem is that I don't know what to do next. But that is something Ill work on and write about.
