This article does a great job of highlighting why I can't stand Tim Ferris. Even when talking about such an important, sensitive and terrible subject he can't stop himself from constantly hyping himself up. Every other sentence is still about how great he is, about how he's constantly talking to celebrities, etc. Awful.

I don't think that this suicide post was a big humble brag... it was to address to his own readership a serious issue in his own light. The more role models that follow this line of thinking to their own audiences the less suicides and more awareness there might be as a whole. I applaud founders/engineers/leaders who speak transparently on the topic. shout out to Kyle at Keen.io for his very personal post in reaction to brad feld's own https://medium.com/@dorkitude/entrepreneurship-and-depression-5c4b19a06d83 https://medium.com/@dorkitude/entrepreneurship-and-depressio... http://www.feld.com/archives/2014/10/founder-suicides.html http://www.feld.com/archives/2014/10/founder-suicides.html
