I see the Steve Yegge cycle begins anew.

1 Join a company

2 write a lengthy, self-important diatribe/novella about why he joined

3 Write several lengthy, self-important diatribes, often namedropping previous places he worked and/or how he accidentally influenced some C level officer just by dint of his unique persona =) That rascally Steve!

4 Repeat step 3 anywhere between 10-50 times

5 Quit job, write lengthy self-important diatribe about why he left (optionally leaping straight into step 1 again, sometimes with a break inbetween)

Should be an interesting 6 months for Sourcegraph, at least! Looking forward to seeing how this progresses.
