That's not at all an analogous situation

A truly analogous situation would be the CEO of Repl.it working on Codeacademy Labs as an employee, a similar product to Repl.it, before leaving and launching Repl.it itself, which is what happened.

  • Yeah and well you don’t act petty and unprofessional as the CEO of any company. Tech does not get a pass on it. I fully enjoy watching an intern evoke this level of response from a well funded CEO. I was employee #1 for a start up still in business so I know how they can be your ‘baby’ but give me a break on this one... the CEO literally is projecting what he himself did onto this intern.
