Yeah, go back and actually look at those comments RE: Larry Ellison. Everyone is pissed that he wasn't acting professionally; it's all about decorum and how Ellison is a jerk that nerds wouldn't want to work for, due to appearances. Zero interest in whether what was posted on Oracle.com was correct.

The focus on optics and "niceness" here is really unfortunate. Because, the thing about when somebody says something that's not nice, that you wouldn't repeat to your grandmother, maybe even contains words like "fuck", is that it could still be true. And it should be treated that way.
