I don't know exactly what is that but I read it with pleasure constantly
switching from understanding it as irony on tech side and then on business
side.

Author of this post is almost surely techie but probably bit tired of people
totally downplaying business side.

I can only agree with the title of the post, not with the rest of the article.

I'm a technical guy with +10 year background but I also have interest in the
rest of areas of a company. Unfortunately I lack any business skills and I'm
afraid of failing in basic things if I'm starting my own business.

I don't like at all MBA's with non-technical skills like the one who wrote the
post. They tend to be very arrogant and do not seem to care much about the
technical aspects, which are indeed crucial for many of the companies
discussed here in HN. It's for this reason that I'm pursuing an MBA myself, I
think tech+business makes a good tandem. I'll let you know when I finish in
two years.

I'm sorry, but I feel the absolute need to be blunt.

This is by and far the worst idea Ive ever heard. Persuing an MBA is NOT
learning about business. It's the purchase of proof pretending to know what a
real entrepreneur understands through years of experience.

Arrogance is rampant in HN on both sides of the frontline between techs and
nontechs. Coders think they're the real driving force behind the company and
the biz guy thinks his sales are the only reason you're afloat.

If you want REAL business experience, I have single piece of advice.

Go f-bomb-ing do a shitty sales job. I learned everything I know today through
sales. I've sold everything from professional tax accounting services to the
tapioca (bubbles) you're probably sucking on in your bubble tea while reading

 I'm a technical guy with +10 year background but I also own interest in the 
 rest of areas of a company. Unfortunately I lack any clientele skills and I'm 
 afraid of failing in basic things if I'm starting my own business. 

 I don't like at all MBA's with non - technical skills like the one who wrote the 
 post. They tend to be very arrogant and do not seem to wish much about the 
 technical aspects, which are indeed all-important for many of the company 
 discussed here in HN. It's for this reason that I'm pursuing an MBA myself, I
