Opinions are fantastic. The problem here is that your opinions are meaningless unless you support them. And whether you choose to back up your opinion or not in a meaningful way is the difference between reading/commenting on news _here_ versus reading/commenting on news _most_ other places.
That may be, but how should I know that? Until the singularity occurs, the best of intentions aren't an appropriate substitution for even the weakest attempt.
I think 37Signals has done enough to support their particular opinions though, whereas I'm not sure you can say the same for axod, but I will stand corrected.
