This post claims, in two places, that Conjecture staff have been known to react defensively to negative feedback. When I first read the post, I was skeptical about this point i) being true, and ii) pointing to something substantial, if true. However, now that I’ve seen janus’s response to this post over at LessWrong, I’m less skeptical. (Context: janus are former Conjecture staff.)

I also consider Conjecture’s official reply to be rather defensive, but I guess it could just be cultural differences.
