srsly?
- simonbrown 15y agoDownvote for a me-too post, probably.
- jsilence 15y agoInterresting, since a similar 'me-too' comment yielded five upvotes just three days ago. Yeah, maybe I'll have to add more insight as to why i'm me-too-ing the parent post. With a link. http://digg.com/newsbar/topnews/rss_is_dying_and_you_should_be_very_worried http://digg.com/newsbar/topnews/rss_is_dying_and_you_should_...
- pmorong 15y agoDownvote for being a dickhead. Not that this stops pg, of course. He loves incompetent morons like yourself. Apply to YC today!
- tfb 15y agoPardon me for taking the bait, but what are you so mad at pg for? Clearly you've taken some kind of interaction with YC and/or pg personally.
- pmorong 15y agoNo worries about taking the bait. My comments will be removed soon enough which will make yours either incomprehensible or invisible, depending on how the Stasi decides to remove them. Regardless, you should be blameless. To answer your question: I have had multiple personal interactions with pg. I think that everyone who has spoken with him in the same context as I (essentially peers: similar social status, not looking for funding, etc.) will agree to the first two of my characterizations: - egotist - passive-aggressive They may or may not agree with my third, depending (in my opinion) on their empathy for other human beings (including and especially in this case) disaffected geeks: - snake-oil salesman I am offended as a human being that he exploits his goodwill to resell extant hopes and dreams for his own personal profit.
- jsilence 15y agoPlease don't feed the troll. I don't know this person. Never interacted.
