> I bet you think of yourself as an idea guy.

What does this even mean?




It means he wants to sit back, write a lazy comment, and have someone else do all the work ("code it up", hah). Toss his brilliant ideas that are "worth a try" over the fence and move on to the next brilliant idea. Without any research or due diligence or even consideration for the comparative amount of effort it takes to have an idea, vs executing on it. Ideas are a dime a thousand.

This is the same kind of person who's got a great business idea, they just need you to write up an AirBnb clone in a couple of weeks, and they'll give you 5% of the company.
