> You didn't call them names, engage in ad hominem

Well, the author wrote:

> Teammate App CEO, Sean Banayan, who has the reading comprehension and IT knowledge of a toddler

So it wasn't very nice, but deserved imo.

Fair - maybe there was a little name calling. But, I agree it was deserved.

To be fair that doesn't appear to be an ad hominem because the author lists many facts supporting his assertion none of which was particularly personal. Nor is it name calling as he compared the CEO to a toddler, but did not say that he was a toddler.
