Basically Sam is dishonest and not a likeable person. This is a datapoint.

Anybody else who knows Sam well want to Chime in? All this hero worship is coming from people who don't know Sam and don't know why he's fired.

So at the end of the day at the highest levels it's still just about they were nice/mean to me.
That's really good data. Better than all the data from people who never met him or don't even know what's going on. I still can't answer the question why was he fired, but we have 400 pages of speculation on HN.

This twitter post is literally better information then anything I've seen for the past weekend.

97% of OpenAI's employees? You can probably find dozens if not hundreds of active users on this site you are using, who have at some point crossed paths with Sam, given his involvement in building YC. Haven't there already been data points relating their positive views of Altman?

It is a datapoint. It's not the only datapoint.
