Just because hes not a political animal it doesn't mean he's inured from politics. I've seen 'irreplaceable' a-political technical leaders be reason for schisms in organizations thinking they can lever their technical knowledge over the rest of the company only to watch them get pushed aside and out.
- bertil 3y agoOh that's definitely common. I've seen it many times and it's ugly. I don't think this is what Ilya is trying to do. His tweet is clearly about preserving the organization because he sees the structure itself as helpful, beyond his role in it.
- boringg 3y agoFair - hopefully an unintentional political move but big political miscalculation.
