MS Bashing - when definitely not to do it
Chris Garrett has a very reactive post to ThreadWatch's MS bashing. I concur with Chris - a website that professes to be "less noise, more signal" is certainly not using the Dolby System to lessen their noise about Microsoft. There is nothing more debilitating than listening to MS Bashing at work when you are developing .NET applications! About 2 years ago, I had encountered a tech lead (manager) whose constant MS Bashing at the start of every morning and opportunity was most demoralizing to the team members who were making a living with the .NET technologies. I saw that as very poor management and deplorably weak leadership that sapped motivation and was counter-productive.
