What he's saying is essentially "The code I write/the platform I choose scales poorly over multiple cores. Therefor I decide to blame the hardware, and skip features that are good for me"

People need to adapt to a world where we have more cores instead of faster execution per core. You can't compare late 90's growth in execution speed per core with the situation we have today.

Write software for an environment where the number of cores scale, instead of an environment where the execution speed of a single core is more important.

Is that so bad? He's writing and hosting the code, and he's paying the bill to do it. Seems to me he should be able to pick how to do it.
