Software design mistakes that Diaspora needs to fix.

I think Diaspora could do itself a huge favor by writing up a blog post explaining how the $200k was distributed. Everyone keeps harboring on the fact that they have that much money, but everyone forgets that they have quite a bit of liability with what they guaranteed on Kickstarter.

I think once that is done, people won't be so fast to suggest to them to hire a $100k/year engineer from Google or other things. Just my $0.02...

Yeah, they have to send out 3,296 t-shirts alone, and even if they get a great deal, and end up paying $5 each (incl. shipping & handling), that's $16,480 just in t-shirts.
