- helveticaman 18y agoI agree, but...maybe it is good in the long term. I can conceive of that being the case.
- webwright 18y agoI don't want to say that nice guys finish last, but certainly a big slice of the people at the "top" of the tech world aren't taking the middle ground. Pissing people off seems to correlate with success.
- run4yourlives 18y agoUm, they're proving otherwise. They've pissed off a whole boatload of people, and their customer based is still growing. It's that old, "it nobody hates you, you aren't doing anything worthwhile".
