- bogomipz 9y agoExactly, that article was written by a VC. That does not make it a universal definition.
- sillysaurus3 9y agoIf an ad hominem is the best criticism you can come up with, it seems correct to me.
- bogomipz 9y agoYou might want to look up the meaning of ad hominem. There is nothing in my comment that is even remotely attacking either you personally or your character.

- bogomipz 9y agoSaying that an article skews to the orientation and outlook of the author(in this case a venture capitalist) is no way an attack on that author. The context of the entire comment was that this definition was not universal.
- sillysaurus3 9y agoThen what's your response to this? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14887245 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14887245 An ad hominem doesn't need to be an attack to be an ad hominem. It's just an argument against the person instead of an argument against their argument.
