Some of my most popular blog posts have been explanations as to how closed source video game engines work. Some of the most popular conference talks are on closed source solutions to encountered problems.

Dismissing a blog post simply because it describes closed source software is silly.

Yeah although we might not get to see exactly what's under the hood, key information and solutions shared by an insightful post can be used and adapted by the community anyway

I'm thinking he's dismissing the tool not the post?
