I can think of roughly 100,000 people that would be better suited to run reddit than spez.

> 100,000 people

Is that an actual accurate count? If so, Im impressed. I dont think I could compile a list of 100,000 people that are alive by name.

edit: And if I even came close, most of them probably wouldnt be qualified to run reddit -- so doubly impressed.

If it were my decision the pool of serious contenders would not be 100,000 and spez would not be anywhere near among them.

So you rounded up to 100k. Gotcha. Cool. Cool.

That is not what I said. I said I can find 100,000 people more qualified than spez to be CEO of Reddit. I would only pull from a pool if maybe a few hundred globally if I were looking for the position. ie spez wouldn't be remotely considered. That has nothing to do with rounding.
