He has his own ideas. I think it's refreshing, he's not afraid of going against some popular opinions. Sometimes he's controversial or showing some risky humor - like the time he was encouraging destruction through npm, but not really.

- danenania 4y agoThat’s fine and I enjoy reading his posts quite a lot (haven’t used any of his services but they seem very cool in a particular HN minimalist kind of way). However if you’re going to traffic in language war melodrama and controversy-for-clicks (let’s be real, it’s a deliberate content strategy), then it’s sort of weak to cry about others not being nice enough in their criticisms of your own stuff. Pot meet kettle and all that /shrug. Regardless, I hope he gets through the rough patch and I look forward to reading more of his posts that may or may not eloquently shit all over some of my favorite programming tools :)
