I wonder who called to ask about his well-being.
The Boeing guy killed himself, this guy apparently killed himself. The pattern of David vs Goliath, where David kills himself, is almost becoming a pattern.
- derektank 2y agoIf there was a gun involved, I would imagine a neighbor would have called. He was found in his apartment.
- pkkkzip 2y agoBoeing guy and OpenAI whistleblower were both seen as "not depressed" and have even gone far as to say that if anything happened to him that it wouldn't have been an accident. I'm not sure why there are so many comments trying to downplay and argue around whether OpenAI was a whistleblower or not he fits pretty much all the definition. OpenAI was suspected of using copyright data but that wasn't the only thing OpenAI whistleblower was keeping under wraps given NDA. The timing of OpenAI partnering with US military is odd.
- kube-system 2y ago> Boeing guy [...] were both seen as "not depressed" and have even gone far as to say that if anything happened to him that it wouldn't have been an accident. Yes, but also, his own brother said: “He was suffering from PTSD and anxiety attacks as a result of being subjected to the hostile work environment at Boeing, which we believe led to his death,” Internet echo chambers love a good murder mystery, but dragging a quiet and honest employee who works in the trenches through a protracted, public, and stressful legal situation can be very tough.

- CyberDildonics 2y agoDavid vs goliath where david swears he will never kill himself and that if anything happens to him it is someone coming after them, then david kills himself right before going to court to testify.
- nialv7 2y ago> this guy apparently killed himself. where did you get that? this article doesn't say a cause of death.
- dgfitz 2y ago> The medical examiner’s office has not released his cause of death, but police officials this week said there is “currently, no evidence of foul play.”
- danparsonson 2y agoSo... murder and suicide are the only possible causes of death?
- dgfitz 2y agoI guess “apparently” doesn’t mean what I thought it did. My apologies.

- thayne 2y agoIt now says > The medical examiner’s office determined the manner of death to be suicide
- princevegeta89 2y agoThere is confirmed news now that he killed himself
- kube-system 2y agoWhen David is just a nobody, and Goliath has all of the legal and PR resources in the world, Goliath doesn't even have to swing a punch. Goliath can just drive them crazy with social and legal pressure. Also, David might have been a bit of a decision-making outlier to begin with, being the kind of person who decides going up against Goliath is a good idea.
- kamaal 2y agoI work with a relative who is in the real estate space here in India and often deals with land shark mafia. The biggest thing I learned from him, to win in these situations is don't fear or not be afraid of consequences. You need to have ice water flowing in your veins if you are about to mess with something big. At worst you need to have benign neglect for the consequences. Often fear is the only instrument they have against you. And if you are not afraid, they will likely not contest further. Threat of jail, violence or courts is often what they use to stop you. In reality most people are afraid to go to war this way. Its messy and often creates more problems for them.

- SideQuark 2y agoYeah, the pattern is real. The patterns of high male suicide rates and Goliaths having a lot of employees combine into a pattern of the innumerate invoking boogeymen wherever it suits their world view, evidence and reason be dammed.
