Did you read the resignation letter?

Yeah, he posted a low-resolution bitmap scan of it on Twitter a few days ago. I had to open it in Safari and rely on its OCR to actually paste the relevant passage that describes his reason for leaving, which only comes after four paragraphs of preamble.

> What comes next, I do not know. I think fondly of the famous Zen quote "not knowing is most intimate". My intention is to create space to set aside the structures that have held me these past years, and see what might emerge in their absence. I feel called to writing that addresses and engages fully with the place we find ourselves, and that places poetic truth alongside scientific truth as equally valid ways of knowing, both of which I believe have something essential to contribute when developing new technology.* I hope to explore a poetry degree and devote myself to the practice of courageous speech. I am also excited to deepen my practice of facilitation, coaching, community building, and group work. We shall see what unfolds.
