| >What have you tried that I've written/advocated on that didn't work for you? You're missing the point. You're handing out advice with no demonstrable expertise on...anything. You don't discuss anything that requires talent, intellect, experience, or domain knowledge. You write about things you pull out of your head or other content you Tom Sawyered other people into collating for you. Speaking of "content", that neuroplasticity and habits post is a travesty. Your whole blog is so thoroughly preoccupied with your person that I can only think you are suffocating on the fumes of your own alternate reality. In brief you are: 1. Without demonstrated accomplishment 2. Arrogant 3. The only thing you're superlative in is narcissism 4. Giving out advice to deluded hopefuls who want to have a site about nothing and to be paid for zero productivity and not work a day more of their lives than they have to. People with work to do, work they love, they don't need people like you. Bonus time! Since people don't seem to get it yet, I've taken the liberty of making an annotated version of the front page of his 'blog'. http://i.imgur.com/ET2hf.png With that, I'm done chasing this matter. I am exhausted with battling this banality. Exeunt. |
1. It is not Sebastian's duty to demonstrate his accomplishments to you.
2. Arrogant? If you hate yourself so much that you can't stand a person with ambition and grand intentions, that's your problem. I'll take Sebastian's "arrogance" over your condescending "objective criticism" any day.
3. On what basis can you say this?
4. I spend my entire LIFE working to build things to help fix the problems in the world. I enjoy reading Sebastian because he writes about doing the same. And from what I can tell, he is one of the hardest working and honestly self-critical writers on the internet.

Sebastian hasn't asked anything of you. He's a valued contributor around here for a great number of reasons, and has found a writing style that resonates with many around here. If it doesn't resonate with you, that's fine. We're all in a different place. But there's no cause or excuse for this type of attack. As Sebastian points out below, 17 posts? That is a bit scary. Remember, beneath the posts and karma there's real human beings around here, some of the smartest on the internet, and they all deserve a measure respect, regardless of your thoughts on the value they provide the world for free. What exactly are you trying to prove, and to whom?
