Oh that's the omarchy guy. Yeah I would not touch anything he has created with a long stick unless there was feces upon the end of it. Ruby on Rails has needed new leadership for a long time. https://tomstu.art/the-dhh-problem

DHH, Tobi Lutke, Elon Musk... this new "movement" of tech leaders being vocally vile and openly 4chan inspired, is very interesting and terrifying. Are they trying to build some kind of movement? Certainly, conventional wisdom has been to not be openly racist in public spaces. It feels like they have circled their wagons and gone on the attack. You can find mainstream VCs complaining about "woke" culture daily. That the richest people in the world (literally) are worried about well... anything at all, is farcical on impact.
