The tone of this blog post reads as incredibly snobby, self-congratulatory, main character syndrome.

Please dispense with the “change the world” bullshit.

I understand that it’s healthy to celebrate your personal victories but in this context with this bro going to OpenAI to make 7 figures, maaaan I don’t think this guy needs our clicks.

On top of that there’s a better than 50% chance OpenAI suffocates the open source project and the alternative will be a paid privacy nightmare.

Salty. Celebrate people's success. It's good for your soul.

    It’s hard to celebrate the success of people who convey toxic Silicon Valley stereotypes.

    And I’m not going to celebrate the success of multimillionaires who are quitting their passion projects to join the evil empire to “change the world” by making the lives of the working class worse and transferring more wealth to the top.

    Someone in OP’s position of success has the means to make the choice to not work with a Palantir collaborator, but they chose to go for it.
