That might explain why the article is so light on personal details - either he asked them to keep them private, or maybe they're not aware of his real identity at all?
- selivanovp 2y agoThey're aware, that's why they presented him as a "German programmer" and completely avoided his flibusta endeavour. The author from JetBrains is Russian himself.

- znpy 2y agoMany people base their judgment of somebody on the person’s ideals rather than actual accomplishments. My gut feeling is that gp wanted to evaluate Stiver on something else rather than personal accomplishments. It’s another sign of the performative society we live into, where work and accomplishments don’t matter but virtue signalling does.
- rob74 2y agoFunny that you're judging me by assuming that I want to judge him. It just struck me as unusual (and a bit sad) to see this obituary without anything personal. But I don't feel in any way "entitled" to get any personal details, far from it...

- Kwpolska 2y ago> If you defiantly refuse to say who you are, it can make people angry that you’re upsetting social reciprocity. You know who they are, but they don’t know who you are. It feels rude. An obsessive personality might make it their damn mission to figure out who you are! To be frank, fuck them. I’m not inventing an entire persona and stuff just to make some weirdos happy.
