Senior people at very wealthy companies whining that the software they take for free isn't up to their standards is a worse look.

>software they take for free

Software they were given. More cringe:

It sounds like Wes has given a gift and now expects something in return for it. r/niceguys anyone?

Berating your users publicly is not very becoming. I feel sorry for lebigot. He's really being mobbed now.

Looking at the comments, it reminds me of a poor tourist lady I saw surrounded by San Francisco beggars. She gave one some change out of kindness. She was mobbed by four more, who became upset because she had nothing for them.

I doubt she goes back to SF any time soon. Beggars everywhere. I doubt many quants will recommend improvements to Pandas any time soon. Beggars everywhere.

Who are the beggars? The quants who take but don't give back?
