    I can only hope he finds himself in financial distress and has to worry about how he’ll pay his bills. Saying he’ll work for $1 a year tells me that’s probably not going to happen.

    “Cause I lost my job two weeks before Christmas. And I talked to Jesus at the sewer, and the Pope said it was none of his God-damned business.” -Rodriguez

    I read the article. What a fucking whinger. What does he want? Empathy?

    No empathy for CEOs.

    I feel sorry that it didn’t happen weeks before the holidays like what he did to his own employees. Let him sit with failure through Christmas dinner.

    Sorry, your former role is better carried out by AI and at a far lower price point. In fact, we’re about to replace the entire C-suite with AI.

    Vishal Garg feels duped.

    The irony.

    Fuck you, Vishal Garg.

    Also, fuck Mark Zuckerberg, just because I haven’t said it yet, today.

        Throughout all of this, Mark could not be more disappointing. Despite saying in his note that “we are doing everything to get him free,” he doesn’t seem to be worried about Diego in the slightest. He seems to see this, first and foremost, as an opportunity to write a great Facebook post. A heartwarming story. If he cared even slightly about Diego’s welfare, or felt responsible for him as his boss, he wouldn’t be insisting on posting his little message to the world, something that could do great harm, before he goes out to dinner.

          I just read that book. God damn is Zuck a wanker. On the other hand, the author was just nuts for ever thinking Faceblerk was anything other than what it is.

            The author was naive and childlike, but I mean that without insult. Those people are good to have in policy and on ethics committees.

            Somewhere in the multiverse Facebook may have been more utopian (see her Christchurch example), but in this universe Zuckerbergs lack of life experience (and morals) have it chasing the wrong metrics.
