Probably rhetorical, but I can take a stab at an answer! This story is interesting to me, personally, because I'm now just a little bit less naive about how things work around here. The Brendan Eich fiasco startled me a bit, but didn't really register long-term. However, I'm now starting to realize that my worldview, my political beliefs, and my faith will likely be important factors (read: challenges!) in the evolution of my career over the course of the next 20 or 30 years -- something that I had never seriously considered previously, since I'm just a software developer. Interesting times!
