Well, by admission you're not a very good programmer, not interested in a career in development, and, you loose interest & give up when discouraged. Why on earth would anyone want to partner with YOU? Get real.Sounds like you want somebody you can trust to finish your projects and make you some $$. Even your friend knows that. Why don't you?
I'm not sure how you got this out of what I said. But I'll trust you're just having a bad day.
1) Me not being an all-star programmer, and also not having an interest in pursuing a career in software development doesn't have anything to do with my question. I simply added it in to let people know why I feel I'm unable to continue to pursue some ideas on my own.
2) Clearly I already feel that me getting discouraged is a detriment, or I wouldn't be here looking for help in the first place. But when you're a relatively new programmer and you're trying to express your grand idea's, it's easy to get frustrated when you don't have the skills or knowledge to get it done. I've read countless posts, articles, and interviews where people have run into the same feelings. I know I'm not alone, but I do applaud you for fully following through with every idea you've had if that's the case.
3) Without knowing any of my idea's, I find it rather ignorant that you assume I'm looking for somebody do do all the work for me. Not only are you unaware of the idea's or whats required to make them succeed, but I never once mentioned that I was looking for _free_ help, just that I'm looking for somebody that I can trust and discuss my idea's with
You appear to be a new member (newer than myself even), but I'd take a look around and read more comments. HN is a great community and everybody's very supportive of one another. Instead of taking the first opportunity that presents itself to prove your arrogance, I suggest you take a deep breath and try to offer more constructive advice instead of attempting to ridicule and criticize for no reason.
