Okay, but sometimes people deserve to have their work shat on. Not everything is worth defending. Sometimes shit just sucks, and after years of making the same criticisms it's tiring to repeat the reasoning ad infinitum since everybody already knows the conclusion. You're welcome to defend Samsung if you think they deserve it, but once you already have a bad reputation for something it seems you should expect to have to work to overcome it. I find it bizarre you think Samsung deserves some sort of special defense here. If anything I think the author was far too lenient. Most of the things I've worked on in my life have been utter fucking shit. Instead of defending it, I learned from it and improved. I don't see Samsung doing the same.

Nobody is saying it needs to be defended. That’s something you’re implying that I never said. I just said that it’s not a constructively critical view, it’s just a rant.

  > Nobody is saying it needs to be defended. That’s something you’re implying that I never said. Fair. I apologize for being presumptuous. > I just said that it’s not a constructively critical view, it’s just a rant. Sure, but the rant is useful because it provides the context of Samsung sucking at the same thing consistently for years on end. You're right that it's not self-contained and if you were looking for that in the article you'd be disappointed. But at some point it just seems repetitive to have to explain things that have already been repeated for years. Like I don't really want to spend hours (not exaggerating as I've done it before) explaining why I hate cops every time I say so - most people are already well aware of the controversy surrounding cops and don't require an explanation even if they disagree. Anyway, I guess we just see it differently. Cheers.
