> ... Also, please stop pretending your best guess is some sort of calculus over complex corporate politics... I think you should try to be more civil on HN. You can't just bash someone because of their guess. > The converse of this that is equally true: Just because you don't feel capable of doing it doesn't mean I should not. I don't want to get into some argument with someone who feels he is the only guy capable of achieving a failure.

> I think you should try to be more civil on HN. You can't just bash someone because of their guess. I asked politely, my friend. I'm suggesting your guess, leveled as an authoritative position, is misleading. Its you, taking my story away from me, asserting your narrative based strictly on preference. It's a narrative I disagree with, so I'm not inclined to let it slide. It's crass to do this. There are many, MANY other ways you could have decided to open this subject. You could have related to YOUR experience, you could have asked for explanation of how these problems are perceived or surmounted. You could have simply expressed skepticism about the team size. But you didn't. Here we are, on the wrong foot. > I don't want to get into some argument with someone who feels he is the only guy capable of achieving a failure. Then worry not! I am not: a guy, the only one capable of achieving, nor do I consider the product that made me a millionaire a failure.
