I would guess it's that GHotz is a shitty writer, has puddle deep knowledge of anything that isn't iPhone firmware, and plays at being a freelance tech journo and produces this kind of hollow pseudo-philosophy that is meant to sound epiphanal but comes across as deeply naïve to anyone with any actual experience in these topics.

I called his writing shitty. I like George and have used a lot the tools he's written over the years. I've made similar tools myself. Are you so offended that I have a single critical opinion of him? Because that's a reflection of you, not I.
