However this comment feels off:
> In software ideas are cheap. Value is almost always created in execution of ideas.
I've heard this phrase around things like "I have this cool idea for a startup - will you sign my NDA before I tell you about it?"
However, when you're open sourcing your software, you're not just providing an idea, but a significant portion of execution of that idea too.
Sure, code isn't the full execution - that expands to sales / marketing / support / etc.
However, the article is a little glib towards the value of the code, suggesting it's worthless without sales / marketing /etc. I don't think that's true.
