You completely misunderstand the "Curse of the Gifted".
The point of that article was that hustle will only take you so far, and after that point real engineering projects require design and process, least of all because you need to interact with other people. Write software on a team, work on a large project, and you'll understand this better.
The things espoused by this guy are more a function of good luck and parasitism than hustle--do not mistake one for the other.
