This was no regular interview, it’s quite dishonest of you to say that. Second, be honest; do you have any stake in the game yourself? Do you work for microsoft?

How so? It was an interview for him to bring AppGet in-house to Microsoft. That's normal software business.

Honestly, based on what this Keivan said - I think he scared Microsoft away with his demands that they take the project only in a direction that he approves of.

And when they went away, they took some of the most banal ideas, ideas that have been done a thousand times in other projects and used them in their own - which they built in a completely different programming language with exception to the very, very common YAML configuration.

Nope. People who disagree are simply wrong and I'm attempting to correct their ill-formed point of view.

Meanwhile, you're shitting up the comments with this trashy ad hominem insinuation of shilling. It's against the rules and you should stop doing it - https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
