If you know me, I could really care less about the traffic one article brings. Here's what I do care about: the comment I would have gotten - "Give us examples please" So I gave everyone examples of what we did.

I do know you - you're the type of person that calls people who try to do you favors & curse them out for not being able to get your startup on techcrunch.

Whatever you're talking about I think you've mistaken HN for your inbox. Please take it to email, whatever your beef is.

Public mudslinging is to nobody's benefit.

I don't think I've made any mistakes here, today. Jason clearly said "if you know me...". I do know Jason - so it's a data point.

My opinion of him is not one worth discussing here.

Perhaps you could develop your argument a bit more before trying to tear down a substantial post on someone's experience?

I think that would be a more valuable contribution to the discussion.

No, it's passing experience on to others so they can benefit from it, aka teaching.

That's what I love about HN. It's not just the "How I made a bazillion dollars and so can you" its experiences, however limited, even failures, from entrepreneurs - as they are growing. Wonderful. I love seeing specific examples.
