Why? What is wrong with DHH?

Some people love him, some hate him.

It's also possible to appreciate the stuff he's done for software whilst not being in love with him as a person.

The good news is that I can just say: go ahead and Google “DHH blog”, read his most recent few blog posts and form your own opinions.

I’ve had a negative opinion of him for a good five years or so, but at least right now it’s easy to go read those and form your own strong opinion one way or another.
