Sure sounds like you're blaming antirez for people on Twitter taking his tweet out of context and running with it. It's also completely unfair to say "Twitter was awesome in this very explicit situation so you obviously did something wrong in your situation".

No, that is on the people who did that. If anything I would blame antirez for getting flustered enough about this non-Twitter specific problem to write a blog post.

He is not to blame at all. He made a good faith effort to communicate which did not work and openly reasoned about the challenges of a relatively new platform that many people are still trying to make the best use of. I'm glad he posted.
