I wouldn't want to work for some company whose founder can be openly toxic against a project that solves an actual problem.

- iasay 4y agoPerhaps he's jealous as half of Hashicorp's portfolio only create more problems than you had originally...
- PoignardAzur 4y agoThis comment seems to be an example of the exact toxic mentality the author was complaining about. Like Hashicorp products or not, the remark seems a bit petty.
- mberning 4y agoHow many years ago was this? I’m sure Mitchell has grown a lot and matured since then. Just like everybody else. He did something a little mean spirited. Maybe even something he regrets now. I think he deserves a little bit of grace.
- lrx 4y agoAn apology is powerful leadership. The resolution I've seen, slinking away as if it never happened, is pure cowardice.
- mitchellh 4y agoI was 21 years old at the time. What I did was mean, I did apologize, I do regret it, and I don't think I would act this way anymore (to be fair to Aseem, he noted all this in his post). I went through various phases of my life where I was "a little mean spirited" and this is an example of it. Life lessons have changed me over time, but you can catch glimpses of it in moments like this.
