Re:Ask HN: How do you time innovative ideas? by warrenm on Wednesday January 19, 2022 @03:29PM (#29999560)
The only real way to gauge an "idea" is by implementing it and trying to market it

Ideas are valueless

Implementations may (or may not) have value

The Apple Newton was a decade too early

The iPhone was perfectly timed

The CueCat was 15 years too early

QR codes right on time

Try it and see what happens :)
