I used to respect Jeff a lot, partly because of his stackoverflow fame. However, these days I find him annoying, as he has just become part of the "noise" we all find unproductive. This post just strengthens my point, where he buys useless bling to show off and everyone applauds him for being a materialistic prat.
I'll probably get downvoted but I've just had enough of this 'utility belt' bull.
- cocoflunchy 13y agoHe's been doing this post since 2005, so I don't think much has changed. Plus you can buy the entirety of his 'useless bling' for $35, and it seems pretty obvious to me that he actually uses these tools on a daily basis. The only thing I didn't really like were the affiliate links without disclaimer... but it's not that big a deal.
- TheCowboy 13y agoIt's just a blog post. It's not like he posted this to personally ruin anybody's day or Hacker News viewing experience.
- runjake 13y agoIt's just a post on his personal website. He's not forcing you to read it. You're the one turning it into "noise". You're the one letting it make you unproductive. It's not his job to be your nanny, frankly.
