Comment on Three sacred cows that must die so Europe can live

Comments

Throw into that same fire also every Russian psyop attempt at destabilizing the West. Such as every alt-right/nu-right political party that sprang up over the last 30 years in Europe, brexit, QAnon, climate change denialism, Trump and all of MAGA, anti-vax, etc etc etc.

I suspect that DHH is not so willing to meet at the center. He might be a great software/business leader, but politically he's just another whiner who at best will achieve nothing and at worst will be another Elon Musk.

He might be a great software/business leader

There is little to no evidence of him as a great business leader. How many people does his company employ? I don't think it's as many as a hundred. This is the scale of, say, a single car dealership.

That's a bit insane criticism to lay on him. 37signals is a 27 year old company and Basecamp has been a profitable product for more than a decade.

Success is not measured by the number of people you employ.

Sure, but you wouldn't generally call someone who runs a mature small business a "great business leader".

He's basically just a blogger; no particular reason to pay attention.

That's a successful small business, not a claim to "greatness."
