What ideas do you have in mind?

(It's not what I think is innovative. Who cares what I think? I'm just some commenter on Hacker News with a green account. Thiel himself criticized the iPhone and by extension similar Silicon Valley products as not being the type of "innovation" he thinks America is capable of. I'm suggesting he's hardly in a position to make that criticism given that he himself benefits from this meaningless stuff SV churns out.)

I care about why you think the essay is stupid and if your opinion can be justified.

I don't care why you think that he is unqualified.

Did I say the essay was stupid? (Is it an essay, or is it lecture notes?)

I said the notes were "interesting". I said the conclusion was "the weakest".

Can you be more specific?
