So as I understand it, the thesis of the article is that:
1) The geeks on Beauty and the Geek lack perspective.
2) You, hacker, are probably like the geeks on Beauty and the Geek.
3) Thus, you need a "business guy" to give you the ability to sell things to the tanorexic blonde girls (and everyone else).
I'm glad that the level of discussion has risen to such a high intellectual plateau. Clearly, the special training that business school students receive must inevitably endow them with the unique ability to validate ideas for market fit. To wit:
"It is also worth pointing out that business minded people have been finding innovative ways to make real money for as long as there has been money to be made, whereas hackers are still trying to find some green in the grey zone of the Internet."
Right. Because, if the dot-com bubble, the real-estate bubble, and the failure of such august business institutions as Bear Stearns and Long Term Capital Management teach us nothing, it is that "business people," left in isolation, will inevitably create tangible, permanent value out of thin air. Truly, they are the alchemical wizards of our time.
(On any other day, I might also point out that the "gray area" of the internet is totally devoid of "business guys" who are trying to make a fast buck. But that would be self-evident. The internet will always and forever be the exclusive domain of poorly dressed men who live in their mother's basement, and that no person of sufficient technical capacity has ever launched a successful business venture based upon anything other than computers, robots or comic books.)
