their utter and complete misunderstanding of all the basics of business is starting to grate on me

Their linkbait really grates on me as well (though I happen to agree with this post's conclusion, if not the methods), but I think it's pretty unfair to say that they misunderstand all the basics of business. They seem to be doing pretty well for a shop their size. In fact, I'd say there's a good chance they're doing better than Fog Creek. Maybe misunderstanding the absolute perversion of what too often passes for "business basics" in Silicon Valley isn't such a bad thing.



Considering their success, how do they misunderstand the basics of business?


That's my point.


Haha... I just reread your comment. Sorry, I read it too fast the first time.
