He should not give a fuck about random people on the internet, but just about opinions of the few he knows in one way or the other and respect. I understand this is more complex to do than to say, but still, how to have fun working in the current IT development scene without this crucial step, especially for a famous person like him?
- burkaman 12y agoDon't run a company. You cannot run any kind of business without caring what people think and are saying about you.
- jacquesm 12y agoYou actually can and and you probably shouldn't. And Antirez: please do continue ;). See also: Henry Ford, horses and cars.
- antirez 12y agoYou can get a "general feeling" about your customers without actually feeling responsible/bad about the individual opinion of each of your users. Actually IMHO it is probably not possible to run a company caring in depth about everyone of your users. Of course there is from time to time this totally stranger that may send you a well argued / fact-supported opinion that may ring some bell, and this is great when happens, but here I believe we are talking about "Notch you suck because of the TOS change!" or similar toned messages.
