On the contrary, I have zero interest in the oppositions you set up. I said nothing about "lifestyle" vs. "VC-funded" businesses, and neither did the OP (other than gratuitously name-dropping 37 Signals at one point). Approximately, you're telling me that I'm involved in a war between pandas and oranges because I commented on a post about dinner plates.
I spoke so harshly of this post, not because I have any opinion about whether startups ought to seek venture capital, but because it says things like this: YC "hire as many gullible young naive programmers as possible and work them to death", and "Who will end up really getting the spoils out of any of YCombinator’s work? Paul Graham." These statements are demonstrably false. Worse, they are falsehoods which anybody could easily learn are false with just a little research.
Then there's this whole other level of nastiness. Paul Graham thinks that "designing and building is for chumps". He wants to "make the big bucks and sit on [his] ass". He (by implication) "can't wait to screw over the next guy". Are you telling me that I am wrong to call this "personally ugly"?
Clearly, you and I have very different tastes in writing style. More importantly, I object to your reasoning that if I criticize someone who is doing X (combating and casting enemies), I must also be doing X.
