The only thing that you got right (in my case) is the newbie. All else don’t apply. Look, the way I see it it’s simple: you bought at 30cents and you see NP as god for bringing you at 4$. That’s fair. I bought at 3.5$ and I have no intention to forgive or overlook any major flaws (and there seems to be no shortage of those), until he takes me back to 8$. So until then, he’d better refrain from misspeaking, confusing people, not being clear, announcing publication on journals prematurely etc.
Not every person who criticizes NP is a short.
