Hi Mr Joel Gross. Author of the post here.
You’ve mistaken dismissal for discernment. If you’d like to be useful rather than merely snide, quote the bit you object to and tell me what you think is wrong with it – I welcome critique.

Also, I note your blog has multiple advice pages. For example: https://joelx.com/joels-personal-philosophy/
I admire your commitment to self-refutation.
