Having sat next to / worked with a lot of the rust core people (and Eich) I think while his support was important, that doesn't make him more important/pivotal

Having sat next to / worked with a lot of the rust core people (and Eich) I think while his support was important, that doesn't make him more important/pivotal than people like Dave Herman
- BrendanEich 6y agoIt’s cool to erase me, no problem. Inconvenient facts: I hired Dave, as well as (not as hiring manager but by influence) Graydon. Also I’m cofounder of Mozilla Research and C-level advocate for grad student internships. I’m not taking more credit than them, I want less! But don’t erase sr. management or give anyone else at that level undue credit. It was a team effort, but while there is no “I” in team, there is no budget without C level sponsor.
