Is a direct email to Dustin Caldwell not a better medium for this content? Aside from beating the "wasting smart people on advertising" horse to death, what value does this provide as a blog post and why is HN upvoting it?
This is straight spam and phallus-waving. It's like this is a gaming forum or something.
it's a ruse to get some HN airtime so that you'll learn (and maybe even remember) the name of the guy who wrote it...just like 2/3rds of the rest of what gets posted on here...don't hate the player. we're the suckers up-voting it so he can get some tech scene name-recognition.
