Software development is an 18+ hour a day job. Clients pay for solved problems and don’t have much patience, some problems are difficult to solve, some are easy.
After much anger, frustration, rage and ranting I had the opportunity to engage with Sam Brown, Foursquare’s lead UI designer and front-end developer. He was receptive and open to critical feedback, which I think is great.
The news broke that Foursquare is splitting off part of their functionality to build a new app called Swarm and it got me thinking about this unbundling situation.
I’m disappointed, frustrated and angry.
