don't let people gaslight you here. i mean, look at how the creator treated a person who was a zig evangelist and was donating tens of thousands of dollars to the project:
"Jarred was already writing slop well before he had access to LLMs."
"Jarred was a stinky manager. Poor communication, unrealistic expectations, low empathy, no experience. Just a total shit show"
"When Jarred announced the Rust rewrite, we were ecstatic. It seemed too good to be true. I have to admit, I didn't think the technology was there, to pull off this stunt. But he did it, and now I'm metaphorically sipping delicious tea from a mug that says "It Tastes Like It's Not My Problem Anymore"." [1]
or what about when he called people "monkeys" because he didn't like their product [2]
or when their vp of "community" called github employees clowns [3]
so don't let people tell you that there isn't a pattern here. and when this kind of behaviour comes from the top it shapes the rest of the community
