Thanks for writing :)

I actually just forwarded it to one of my partners.

His reply: "Is that a hint? JK. Good read man."

I'm glad! I had to keep the list short for the blog, but I think this would be a great place to collect other ideas. What 10 points would you have written?
A main one for me is that 'Shortcuts don't pay off in the end'. It hurts when you, as a developer, pour your sole into your app only to have your partners take shortcuts and purchase 'likes', or otherwise 'stuff the ballot-box'. Take the time to help develop sincere social and ad strategies for your app, and your potential for a higher-quality yield increases.
I almost had that point in there, but cut it before publishing.

I also had a point about "your code generation tool isn't good enough."
