Besides, that's just changing the argument, it's pretty dumb to think they don't have great product ideas too, lol, e.g. Microsoft Research? But then we get into that happy place where there is no new idea under the sun. After all, we can take apart just about any 'new' idea and find a rich lineage. It is in only the most rare of cases that anything is truly new. It's the fruition of an idea that's usually the thing that is recognized at large, and that is often not at the origin anyway. Hacker News articles cast an eye on the fruition of business ideas often enough to say it's predominant here. And that's what this post wants to be about. No matter which way you put it, FAIL ;-)
