I'm really not a fan of this author's style. The content seems angry just for the sake of it. I'm no expert on it, but it's pretty unclear whether the complaint is even valid, as there are talented, non-"retarded" developers that disagree:

And for an egregious example of the author's approach of being angry without validating anything:

OMG, that looks like a parody of a 1990's web site, except that it's not a parody.

How's it not a parody? Seems like it's parodying of a pseudo-Japanese Free Software enthusiast, likely by a 4channer, that just happens to have some real content.

There are ways of communicating beyond those designed to gain fake internet points on a west coast venture capital firm's website. The internet isn't your safe space. Anger is a gift.
