Is "I think it is something that should be ignored until it dies into obscurity" different from "I think it should die"?
> There are good ideas there, but if you sell someone the moon and give them a block of cheese that's kind of a scam.
Xe says "There are good ideas there". What do you think the metaphor of being sold the moon and receiving a block of cheese was intended to express? What does it mean to you? To me, it very clearly expresses that the language described by V's marketing would be extremely valuable and desirable, and that Xe is disappointed that V does not live up to what they expected. It's bizarre to me that you somehow see this as consistent with "should die".
What is your evidence that there's a conspiracy? Why do you believe that people are secretly coordinating on secret plans to destroy you?
Everything I've seen is completely consistent with individuals disapproving of what they see as you repeatedly claiming that V is far more capable and ready than it actually is and ignoring others who point out their perception of the same exaggerations.
I'll be curious to read your upcoming blog post about this topic, as I have yet to see you describe any justification for your conspiracy claims besides you finding it implausible that people could actually disapprove of how you talk about your work.
The blog posts that you keep claiming are maliciously-motivated conspiracy seem entirely normal criticism to me. They describe their goals and motivations, and those goals and motivations seem like very normal and reasonable motivations that explain the content of the blog post. I don't see anything that would need speculated malicious conspiracy to explain it.
Creating a blog, with an obvious smear title like "V is Vaporware" and making comments like "I recommend against using it for anything...", is not "normal" criticism. That is attempting to go above and beyond, with drama and smearing.
To include following such blog posts up with more linking, smearing, drama posts, and attempts to use such to get more attention for one's self at the expense of the V language.
Are there really, truly no tools that you personally recommend against using?
That's not a conspiracy[0], but a review[1]. You should be glad for the people that actually spend time to market your product, raise your credibility, tell you how you see from outside, and provide independent checks. For free.
- You genuinely are not fluent enough in the language to either understand the original statement, or to write a fair paraphrase, and are not willing to believe this mistake.
- You know exactly what you're doing. That is, if you gave the actual quote, nobody would for a moment take it as a proof of your conspiracy claims.
Neither of the above is acting in good faith. I'd ask again whether you'll stop lying about what Xe said, but at this point the answer feels pretty obvious...
