I wouldn't read much into his tone. He tends to be very opinionated, and he tends to express his opinions in a fashion very much like Linus Torvalds.
- temuze 13y agoThere's a difference between opinionated and rude. I don't think rude in a company blog makes the organization look good. I'd be less likely to hire them because it seems they can't provide constructive criticism without being jerks.
- slantyyz 13y agoSome people use a "shock jock" tone as a tool for self-promotion. The article did manage to make it to the front page of HN, after all. And while the tone may turn some people off (myself included), it is probably the right tone and post for the target market of the OP's products.
