Jason Fried may be prone to harsh and honest writing but this isn't even in the same category. Honestly, take another look at 'The next generation bends over'[1]. Here's a quote: > A big payday for sure, and if that was their two-year goal then they nailed it, but I can’t believe that was the point behind Mint. It had too much potential. Ok, interesting. What does David have to say about that? Actually, I wont post any quote from this article here because it's point is diluted by rambling, poor grammer and unnecessary profanity. Now, I'm usually the last person you'll see up in arms about swearing, afterall they're just fucking words. But it turns out words are best used to help get your point across not just for filling space (a lot of space, in this case). Jason's article was short, succint, made a point and was pretty clear about where he was coming from. You might not agree with it, and I might not agree with it... that's fine. But we can read it and discuss, there's no reason to fly off the handle and swear at the guy. Seriously, why so offended? Jason didn't say that Mint's sale was forced by the VC's, he was merely using his guess that it was to make a point about the current generation of startups... Namely the trend of aiming directly for the sellout instead of 'greatness'. His post wasn't even about Mint, the news and his opinion of it just prompted it. On the other hand this article is just plain vulgar, rude and doesn't add anything useful to the conversation. [1] http://37signals.com/svn/posts/1927-the-next-generation-bends-over
