MA is basically slamming him because Twitter hired 2 other engineers to help with their scaling issues. but the reason that he left wasn't that he's no good.. according to his blog post about leaving, it's because he had to relocate to UK due to his partner's visa and not able to work in the US

Short of a tell-all from Twitter's side or Blaine, we're never going to know what caused the scalability problems. Arrington sarcastically mocks people who question his journalistic cred, but you'd have to be willfully ignorant not to see their point.
