The IRS rules governing nonprofits still required the Mozilla Foundation to beg big to go big: the parent had to go find big grants from Soros, Ford, Knight, MacArthur, and give smaller grants to many. This put it in the lefties-only-no-righty-Irish-need-apply revolving-door personnel sector of NGOs and nonprofits (too many glowies there for me, too). Which meant I had a hostile MoFo over my head the minute I got CEO appointment from the MoCo board...

Of course I can't comment on anything about my exit, for reasons that only the most loopy HN h8ers still can't figure out.

This whole thread is a Reddit-style two minutes' hate session that gets pissy about the language of his post without addressing the content.

Eich is right to be wary of US Intelligence infiltration of the non-profit sector, and his characterization of the sector's hiring preferences is probably accurate.

Also the image presented by the glowies concept is hilarious, and demonstrates again why the Right memes better than the Left.

Except the content of his post also blames the left, which is kind of fucking stupid when the government is undergoing a billionaire coup of the PayPal boys.

Eich is out of touch with reality and so are you

reply to the wrong post?

Lol. The right only thinks they're good at meming because you guys huff your own farts. Your memes are cringe and ass.

this is the reason why you get banned from reddit, by posting false evidence that subs can easily detect, and you keep crying here or another site.
