He is a regular on the nodejs mailing list. An example of his, ha-hum, somewhat difficult disposition (break-down starts from the third post down):

- sh1mmer 16y agoAlso a regular in the Node irc room (JimBastard). I just connected the dots. He won a ticket to JSConf by winning the pre-conference talk in a bar about JavaScript competition. He seemed ok in person, and I know he hacks a lot of his own code, but I'm surprised what a dick he seems to be being. He definitely wasn't this much of a jerk face to face. Oh the Internet, this is why we can't have nice things.
