I think this is tasteless and unprofessional writing; anything that makes fun of other people's efforts and presentations of themselves just feels very... childish.
If this was an article on ideas for creating a better web portfolio, totally different beast; that's an article that could be worth something. Something that improves the readers perspective or abilities.
Pointing and laughing at people is not cool, writing it up as an article is even worse.
- bdcravens 11y agoI think there's value in saying: "no one cares about your site because it doesn't stand out" If Elon or Jobs are snide about the status quo, they're innovators who cut through the crap. If it's someone criticizing my conforming uniqueness, they're childish.
- kup0 11y ago> "no one cares about your site because it doesn't stand out" The problem is that's all he needed to say. I mean, I get it, the article is an attempt at constructive criticism through a lens of humor, but for me the humor falls flat. Some of the criticism is valuable, just not presented in a way that makes the targets of the criticism likely willing to listen (and, admittedly, maybe that is not his goal...)
