Is there a connection between Tim Ferriss and Roomba, or is this just a joke about Brooks having a 4-hour workweek?

They were saying that whoever was running things at Roomba must have been duped by the 4 hour work week bs because nothing was getting done. Specifically whoever took over operations, planning, and product improvements from Brooks.
