These claims make me assume the original author exaggerated everything to the point that the whole story is essentially a lie. This guy was incredibly capable but copy-pasted everywhere and wrote shitty code? This doesn’t even make sense. It makes even less sense that somehow no one noticed his copy-paste coding for over two years until he was finally fired for other reasons. But then those same incompetents who didn’t notice the copy-pasting or generally overengineered spagetti code suddenly came together to rebuild the whole product in a quarter of the time with less than a tenth of the code. Yeah right.
