I've just gone and read through a few recent entries from Dave's blog. I can see some name dropping, but I think you're making a mountain out of a molehill. It's not a self-serving hagiography, at least from my sample. He's proud of what he's done, but I expect a degree of that in a blog. If you don't like his style of writing, you don't have to read it. You accuse him of refusing to engage with criticism, which is quite a serious claim in a community that prides itself on rational discourse. Other commenters have also alluded to this, though I've not seen evidence for it. There's a fine line between critical responses that you should engage with and personal attacks that can be ignored. Your comment here doesn't read like constructive criticism to me.
