He also had multiple sclerosis, so this is a heavy charge and I don't know anything, but I start to wonder if someone had some cruel ulterior motive related to that. (Insurance costs? Need to accommodate the illness?)
I did not know him and he did not know me, but when I worked at Microsoft I would see him around campus. Small story, I remember one day in the building 10 cafeteria he asked me to hand him a bag of jalapeño potato chips he could not reach in his IBOT thing. Seemed like a nice guy. I later read in his final blog posts that he had a fairly eccentric personal life.
I am late to say it, but RIP.

- asveikau 6y agoI don't remember the timing. MS did change their health plan around the time of this post. Maybe a little later. Also, people come and go in management and HR. Getting one kind of treatment at point A doesn't necessarily mean you get it at point B.
