I wouldn't say that anyone posting about anything is a great thing about the web. Finding <i>good</i> information more easily is an advantage.<p>"without knowing more about anything than some guy named Guido?"<p>That's an exaggeration and it doesn't bring the discussion anywhere. It's very well possible to post a good analysis of a language without "knowing as much as Guido." In this case, experience with languages other than PHP and Java would help.<p>Anyone can talk about why they don't like something (even though a lot of the reasons he mentioned have been refuted here). What's so annoying about this person is the fluffy bullshit (ex: "it completely destroyed its potential.")<p>You can't confuse not impressing you in the meager amount of time you spent working with it and complete failure.
