I do not. It's pretty easy to see the slant most of his essays have, although I do like reading them since he's incredibly articulate and writes in an intelligent yet plain style.
His essays and opinions generally seek to aggrandize what I like to call the "startup industry". Getting young people to take huge risks they can't even start to gauge so that the startup industry (vc) benefits. My personal favorite is when he makes the claim that "working on side projects for money isn't worth it, you should just commit to your employer and try to get a raise". However, I can't agree more with his views on why Cambridge MA is by far the best place to study and think deeply. His essay, in which he visually recants a walk in Cambridge brings back so many memories of my college days in Boston, it's one of my favorite things to read.
