Everybody acts disgracefully from time to time, but very few people try to make it right in such a public way afterwards. Well done. http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment11http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment11Sat, 26 Apr 2008 02:55:22 GMTAyende you got my respect... http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment10http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment10Fri, 25 Apr 2008 05:05:21 GMTSomehow, I think Oren is the last blogger in the universe who needs kudos points :) http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment9http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment9Thu, 24 Apr 2008 12:48:33 GMTlol, ok, i believe you! http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment8http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment8Tue, 22 Apr 2008 15:41:27 GMTJon, This apology was rendered face to face, in a private email and as a blog post. I considered burning the words on the front lawn, so passing spaceships could see it as well http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment7http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment7Tue, 22 Apr 2008 15:38:55 GMThmm, the cynic in me says this is more of a grab for ALT.NET blogosphere kudos points than a real apology (which would surely be better in a private email to the individuals concerned?) http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment6http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment6Tue, 22 Apr 2008 13:48:33 GMTYou are forgiven my friend http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment5http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment5Mon, 21 Apr 2008 11:22:04 GMThttp://www.thesimpledollar.com/2008/04/18/warren-buffett-on-reputation/ http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment4http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment4Sat, 19 Apr 2008 01:36:24 GMTlol - you just lived the anti-MS crusaders dream. you're totally right though - all our SSIS DBA's are completely external to our dev process. And that causes huge amounts of trouble, anger and frustration. We have an entire live production aggregation system that isn't version controlled or regression tested. It's natural for these feelings to be directed at the source. http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment3http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment3Sat, 19 Apr 2008 00:17:32 GMTYour passion about this stuff rules. Sometimes it is going to spill over. In the end, your efforts make our whole stack way better. We all have our times where judgement falls aside for a moment (i.e. in my case, debating anything related to C# with you - lol)... your response here speaks to your character about it. http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment2http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment2Fri, 18 Apr 2008 21:17:33 GMTApology accepted. http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment1http://ayende.com/3276/an-apology#comment1Fri, 18 Apr 2008 20:43:25 GMT
