No thanks, I'm going to spend my valuable time trying to build things that fit a market and satisfy genuine customer problems.
I don't get this, it starts off talking about human startups being bad at customer development and feedback loops, but then says "just do something random, lol". I know it's supposed to be light hearted, but I've read more interesting articles on TechCrunch. (Zing).
And then there are people who want to create great products and get paid to support themselves and further development. Neither selling snake-oil nor starving are an option to them.
Please don't make it sound like not making "free/libre open source" would equal being a greedy capitalist who only cares for profits.

Some people want to hit the world with something new and some people just want to get rich :)
