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.

    People always say things like that as if that some kind of argument in its favor.

    Being stabbed is better than being shot, but I wouldn’t consider either them to be particularly good for your health.

      Oh, that was not my intention, there are far better drugs than K, even some, which don’t destroy your body.

      But when I compare friends who use coke vs who use K, well, there is a big difference. Coke using people tend to get on my nerves (even if they are not on coke right now) and get dumber in some ways, while with people using K, I don’t have that.
