I put some of that down to him not writing in his native language - perhaps it is more difficult for him to translate feelings or concepts to English.
But I do agree that it would have been better to hear about some of his own failings or bad decisions. Hard to imagine his co-founder would try to eject him from the company without at least some perception of an issue with his character, skills or decisions.
- dannypgh 8y agoYeah; to be honest I couldn't make it to the end of this "postmortem" because of how badly it seems to want to assign blame. I have taken part in numerous postmortems for multi-million dollar outages, and find they're valuable only when starting from the premise that we're all smart people trying to do our best, so any mistakes made by people are indicative of too much being asked of the people (lack of training/system complexity too high/lack of training/lack of automation). Besides the fact this leads to AIs that are actionable and positive for engineers to tackle, hiring is really hard. If you're just going to blame your partners or coworkers and aren't providing any insight on how to choose partners or employees better, I'm really not interested.
