Yeah, the translation in the OP was almost completely wrong; I'm not sure where they got the idea that there was a joke that said "kill yourself". Actually, the depressing thing is that the real comment points even more toward a suicide.

I still don't get what's happening.

The real comment sounds like someone knows that Aleksey was suicidal, and says, in order:

"Nobody sell this guy any pills" (so he does not kill himself) "You selfish bastard, who's going to take care of mom?" (if you kill yourself) "You could always sell the source code and fuck off to costa rica" (an alternative to killing yourself) "Paypal would pay you couple of hundred thousand for it" (saying that the above-mentioned source code is very valuable) "Pick up the phone bitch" (apparently he is ignoring the phone calls from his worried friends, and they wish him to stop doing so).

Does that help?

Kinda - I still don't get what code they are talking about and what Paypal has to do with it

I don't think anyone knows that.

What's going on is that Alexey probably something to run away from, probably monetary: hence "fuck off to Costa Rica" and references to $200,000-$300,000.
