There is always an emotional motivation behind what people say and write.
The whole article sounds like humblebrag. OP is fishing for attention and trying to make himself famous for being famous... To top it off, he uses his position as a prominent Facebook employee to get extra leverage. It doesn't get any more self-indulgent than that. Not to mention the part where OP essentially brags about how humble he is (quoting other people of course; very subtle).
It's as though having everyone know how awesome you are at everything isn't enough... You also need everyone to know that you are also awesome at being humble about how awesome you are.
However, if the whole article is meant to be social satire then I think it's really clever...
