Well, the most successful people in any profession are "the people who solve problems". That isn't something inherently unique to programmers.

I attended college in Boston at a different, much less prestigious institution. After wandering around the MIT campus a handful of times, I began to wonder if there was any way I could possibly get involved in the ecosystem. So that fall, I

From what I can tell the rating is random & anonymous. I took a picture of breakfast, don't have any friends using the app, and had 48 votes within a few hours. The app is really slick...
