Jesus, plenty of programmers are not creative. Majority really don't have problem they need to solve for themselves. They however want to learn and challenge themselves with variety of exercises.

Why would you took offense in that or why would you assume that everyone is trying to build company is beyond me.

In any case, this list is literally for programmers. It is not for founders. It is not meant to earn you money. It is list of small enough challenging projects that force you to learn new technical skills.

Well I must be biased, because at my last job, at least 80% of the programmers were really creative and brilliant people who were also highly skilled artists and musicians, lol. Perhaps I was just surrounded by extremely wonderful people :)
