Decent advice? Is there any evidence that the guy has any experience running a technical company? Because to me, his advice sounds vague in a dangerous way. "Nah, you don't actually need to know anything about what your business does — just know what's right and what's wrong for it and get people to do that for you." If that were technically possible it would be wonderful — you could just bumble around cluelessly and profit from it. My experience with people who take that approach, though, leads me to doubt it.

More likely he's a sales guy and he made a product-sales business with minimal software needs. Good for him, but you can't generalize that to "Founders should barely know anything about technology."

Chip Morehead?

Seriously though. I kind of gave up to discuss this. To be honest I kind of like things the way they are, I want those who believe in the "coders think business is only codding" to continue doing so. Why would we want to enlight them?
