Right, I’m not Vindu, that’s getting old. I mean, if you want to confuse half-Mexican half-White with Vindu’s ethnicity, well, that’s your business, but slightly brown skin doesn’t mean we’re the same person. New witticism please.
I totally missed this comment!
I think these are all valid points, which the article entirely fails to make. This article isn’t muckraking so much as it is mudslinging, and I find that unethical of Gizmodo. If the article had made these points, and been more transparent about the frequency of Goel’s complaints instead of leaving that to the reader,…
It seems like you’d like to smear me: I’m not affiliated with GamerGate, I think that movement is reprehensible. I’m not affiliated with any Truther movements.
According to Urban Dictionary:
That’s simply not what you were saying. Why did you mention “5 different beefs” if the number had nothing to do with your point? I’m not seeing how “presumably just to trash them” says that the problem is with his tone. And what about my point about the frequency of his tweets?
He tweeted 5 tweets at Starbucks over 6 years. In 2010, 2013, and 2016. He only comes off as obsessive because Kleeman put them all together.
For the record, that is how that conversation ended. If the worst you can say about me is that I noticed that somebody messed up some math in rape stats, had a civil discussion, and came to a friendly conclusion with the OP who’d actually made a mistake- then please, I welcome your criticism.
You’re entitled to your opinion. I would say that one bad tweet does not make you a bad person or an asshole. And I would say that he’s done nothing that warrants being posted about in Gizmodo. There are wrongs that deserve the full light of The Internet being shone directly on you. This is not one of them.
And now we’ve moved on to ad hominem attacks and vulgarity. Reasoning with you is like attacking a hydra.
So now we’re changing topic from “he’s an asshole” to “he tweets at companies too much for my taste.” Okay, sure. But if it’s just your personal taste- then maybe don’t call people assholes just because they’re different than you are?
Please elaborate. What is your point? That journalists shouldn’t be on public forums? Because that sure isn't in the article.
I don’t use Twitter like that. But I wouldn’t be surprised if I complained to companies through other channels about similar frustrations with that frequency.
I count three separate issues over- wait for it- 6 years. So no, 5 tweets are not five issues, and even if they were: 6 years!! That’s totally understandable that your favorite company in the world messes up occasionally. I don't think you have a valid point!
I doubt it, he gets his own coffee and lunch, remember?
He only tweeted about 10 issues in 2015. That hardly makes him an asshole.
This is terrible journalism.
There are some apps that advertise “hyperlocal” weather forecasts. But there is much more uncertainty in these forecasts because it becomes technically difficult to use radar to predict what clouds will do on the scale of less than a few miles. They’re mostly good at saying when it will and won’t rain within the next…
