Just to add a similar sentiment, I've also seen Zach speak at conferences and his talks are excellent. If nothing else, someone should hire him to represent them at various tech conferences to improve their reputation and attract better talent. And given how insightful his talks are, I'd bet he's at least a decent developer too. I have no doubt that the offers will roll in, despite any stigma over being fired. As someone who hires developers, I'd have no qualms about hiring him.
