Oh please. He even misrepresented his own view.
"I wasn't attacking anyone, I was only letting everybody know they've been told"
The constructive bit of information was "hey cool this uses a lot of the concepts SmallTalk used in the 80s, great to see it getting some traction" instead of "I told you so!".
After a decade of waiting, I think I'm entitled to express a bit of frustration.
Your position is quite contradictory. Do you really think I'd extoll these capabilities for years while mainstream programmers pooh-poohed me, then suddenly change my position to "meh?" "I told you so," seems to be the most sensible response to me.
