Which is precisely why Silicon Valley needs to get over its infatuation with young, intelligent engineering types who have no experience successfully applying software to business. Giving a "talented" engineer with no demonstrable business acumen tens of millions of dollars to build a profitable, sustainable business is sort of like giving a "talented" pianist tens of millions of dollars to build commercial real estate. Just because an individual has "talent" and knowledge in one area doesn't mean they have it in all areas.
