I fail to see the hypocrisy. A mis-implemented feature (which might not even have been considered or prioritized at all) doesn't mean a "product failure" -- whereas someone not only failing to understand that, but also recommending the firing of a person they don't know because some pet feature they were looking for wasn't implemented well, does imply a certain idiocy.
It's like someone asking for a waiter to be fired because they didn't like a particular part of their dining experience, and somebody calling said person an idiot. Even if they're not (which is more probably the case), they're being a jerk, and that's what the second person want to imply.
>*That's why companies don't base their decisions on random posts or comments.
"So companies shouldn't take customer feedback into account when making product decisions? That seem like a pretty bad plan."
It also sounds like a bad deduction from what I've wrote.
Nor does someone calling for a firing on a blog actually threaten a livelihood.
So you're not ok with holding employees responsible for their work product failures, but you're ok with calling people with strong opinions about said failures "random idiots"? Hooray hypocrisy.
