sounds like he read every Paul Graham essay and then decided it was a good idea to do the exact opposite of everything in them.

Your comment isn't fair. Creating a great product is a delicate balance being sickly perfectionist and crazily pragmatic. You have to make things as simple as possible, but no simpler. And if you want to feel at all inspired by your own product (which is kind of necessary to inspire others, e.g. users), you need to believe that you are building something great.

It's a very complex dynamic and it's very easy to find yourself giving in to one side or the other. Even after having learned the lesson, it's still very easy to fall back into it time and again.
