Notch makes a bunch of early-morning tweets, these get dissected in the press with sentences ending in ", no really" and explanations of how much the toilets in his new mansion cost. And now the comments (even in here) mock him.
He has a history of mood issues and blogged about how his father killed himself due to depression. [0]
He is a human being in trouble.
You can do better, HN.

- sosuke 11y agoHe is in emotional distress and anyone who wants to be helpful should suggest he not turn to Twitter for support. Anywhere but Twitter in fact. There are specializations psychologists go into helping people deal with the problems he is facing.

- Lerc 11y agoOne of the things Notch has consistently stated that he disliked about his fame was the tendency for media outlets to make his life and opinions into news stories. He's having a rough time at the moment, I really hope the media over-analysis doesn't make things worse.
