For the most part, I hear you on that. However, if you start a biz that when fully optimized can gross $10MM or $100MM a year, but because one is focused on Q of L issues, that biz only grosses $1MM a year, I think that's selfish behavior and obviously detrimental to one's employees and/or shareholders.
- jgalt212 12y agoOf course, the downvote. Any critique, no matter how thoughtful or balanced, of any of the HN sacred cows (patio11 in this case) will guarantee you downvotes. Tyranny of the majority is in effect at HN.

Your employees aren't owed a maximum possible amount of growth either. It's a free market - they can stay or leave.
- jgalt212 12y agoFair enough, but in all seriousness it really should be a site requirement for either the downvoter to identify themselves, or post a note as to why they are downvoting. The process is just too opaque.
- rgrieselhuber 12y agoI share your disdain for cowardly down voters.
