He may not have quit Mahalo, but he clearly quit his job as CTO of Mahalo. You can spin that if you want, but it's not generally considered a good thing when the CTO of a tech startup resigns his position.

So people are not allowed to leave their position after three years? Wow... you're more hard core than me!
Seriously, you have no idea. Mark and I have been close friends since 1994 or 95 and I think I might know the situation a little better than you.
I mean, it feels like you're looking to make this into something bad... I think it's GREAT if someone I work with moves on to another company I'm associated with.
anyway, enjoy the rest of your day trolling on HN

Jason, what makes this site nice is that we generally don't accuse each other of having ulterior motives. Everything I said should be taken at face value. I'm not trolling. I'm just calling it like I see it, and I certainly admit I could be calling it wrong!
What I see is you perfectly okay with your CTO resigning his job after 3 years, but coming down harshly on a programmer for resigning after 1 year. That seems unfair and hypocritical, and that's why I pointed it out. You can safely ignore me, or point out why I'm wrong. You don't need to resort to name calling or get upset.
