There is a lot of negativity being spread on blind for The Techlead. It's blatantly obvious that people are just jealous of him and nothing else.

If you have seen his videos it's clear that he is a fantastic programmer and has experience in scaling systems to millions of hits.

I was reading a post in which a guy was claiming that The Techlead got PIPed. It's so obvious that it's not possible considering how good of a coder he is.

We in tech have always believed in meritocracy and that people should not be discriminated on the basis of their college degree, age, race, etc and should only be respected for their work.

Then why so much hate now? We demand for non-toxic workplaces then why so much jealousy now?

      I think it's mostly because of his life before Google and Facebook. He started multiple websites and apps and scaled to handle hundreds of thousands of users. But I do agree I don't see him as a god, he is still a very exceptional programmer.

    Haters gonna hate. He doesn’t have to be a godlike programmer. He launched a product that people watch and he knows what content to feed his audience.

    Maybe he’s a talented programmer and also a talented product manager, and clearly has the ambition to run with his own project.

    If you’re angry at him for that, you’re really just angry at yourself for not having the same drive as him.

      It's not about getting triggered. Don't you think these are double standards? On one end we are fighting for equality and respect at workplace and on other end we are insulting a talented person in our field for no reason.
