THere's the difference between aiming high and failing vs. aiming low and glorifying it (and often still failing). Her argument is that there are a lot of low-hanging fruit that have the potential to actually help people but that the startup community is too homogenous to know or care about such project domains. Some of the domains may be hard to tackle but even within the software domain there are certainly classes od problems that are underserved vs. the gaming/photos/music/sharing market. Indeed one of my favorite example is visible right here: not a week passes without someone writing a new client for Hacker News on (the cli|oculus|as a kernel module). These ate usually side project to learn a new technology and it's completely legitimate to chose a domain you're familiar with, but with a bit more effort I belive it'd be possible to redirect that creative engery to projects that are both more enjoyable and actually useful.
