I didn't see this posted anywhere, so I thought I'd share it. I'm pretty conflicted. One the one hand, his style makes him sound like a very likeable person (imo), but on the other hand, hiring people purely on "attitude"? I don't know man... that may explain a lot...

Interesting but the whole "hiring by vibe" is a (insert my own please don't swear) practice. I don't think the replacement will be noticeable unless they completely shake it up, which won't happen.

I read excerpts of that letter from the Bell article. Based on that alone he isn't who I'd want in charge of a hobby I'm invested in and care about.

I saw this posted on /tg/ a few days ago.
General consensus is that he either wrote it while drunk or simply does not care anymore.
This is not what i would like to see as either a customer or investor.
Still, no worries?

I guess not. Should I be look forward to the new CEO, dread it, or not care? I can't imagine GW won't be shaken up, as the only more powerful motivator for change in business than money is the lack of it...
