Words of wisdom over hundreds of tweets. I'd probably want to fire anyone that thinks this is a good idea.

I think most of my concerns center around this being an impulsive stream of clearly stress based posts. I think a lot of really good conversation could have been raised, which I fear may be lost by a) the stream of conscious nature of the posts, and b) a lack of better editing or personal judgement on a bit of the content.

The frustration shines through, but so does a lot of "advice" about dealing with an unhealthy culture in an even more unhealthy way.

I wish the author the best, the little I know of his past work seems solid. I commend raising these issues, but it raises a few red flags with me in the manner of execution.
