I find this to be a confusing article. So, I couldn't resist to spend "10 minutes" to point these mistakes: "10 minutes to come up with something amazing" It's impossible to think of something amazing in 10 minutes. "We aren't rich becau

I've observed you are totally negative about their attempt (you post similar negative comments here on HN). At least they are trying and I won't judge if I don't test it first. Also, from what his says it's obvious that they do realize it's
