Why is this HN material?

There's a tonne of OT stuff herethat is interesting, at least to some HNers, but this feels like someone's private life. Even if true, and this guy built a cool/uncool/popular/terrifying tool, he's still a private person being, so far, only accused of something.

Does it have any bearing on CoPilot? On wider issues in tech? I'm not sure it does.

He’s not a private person. He had a podcast with Nat and presents at conferences.

[name redacted] told me being a “bad programmer” was a reason to kill myself.

Kind of strange from a guy that didn’t know the definitions of OOP or functional programming.
