Even if he's right, Jason proves yet again that being an asshole isn't cool.

I makes me sad that anyone feels this is an appropriate way to conduct themselves.

+1 for that. If I were published as much as Calacanis is (on HN, anyway), I would find a way to conduct myself in a manner that displayed at least a hint of tact and professionalism.

That still counts for something, right? There's got to be a way to still make a point and not look crazy.

It's worth noting that some of the other perennial trolls who get their stuff posted endlessly on HN are often just as bad. I think people here and elsewhere actually encourage it, just in order to see a little "drama" in the scene.
