They took down the gofundme. He’s got a bit of an online footprint that’s being actively picked over. Apparently, he got picked up in Pennsylvania, for “being weird”, presumably from staying awake most of the last week. . So far he has not said anything. Whatever manifesto they got him with has not made the rounds, and frankly I’m not overly enthused about getting ahold of it, but yeah., If I have an excess of time and money in the coming seasons . We’ll be hearing from him and helping Mr. Mangione out.

Like I said, extensive online footprint that is being picked over as we speak. I saw a LinkedIn profile that has since been deleted, but of course it was screenshot. People disappear in a lot of the important ways when they go to prison, but we’ll do what we can.

We don't have to call everybody who works with code a "tech bro". He seems like a perfectly normal and relatable person.

But I've been saying that and being downvoted for it for years.

If anything it sounded like he wanted to be a game dev and gave up on it (probably because it actually kind of sucks as a cog in a AAA company) and that sounds like a ton of people I know.

The serious back injury would explain the hard turn his life made.

Also, if you really want to hate the insurance companies, it's easy: get surgery in America. I thought his rage was from a friend who wasnt rich enough for cancer treatments; here it's a bad skiing accident and the years of bill negotiation that pushed him over the edge.

But that could be me in the same situation. I have a back injury that is never going to improve, but its progress is slowed by proper care and lots of help. A bad turn if I was American and even my good tech job wouldn't be enough. At-will state and I'm laid-off like that, no job means no coverage, no coverage means I sell my everything for anything. Ich bin copaybacker.

Human interaction is important. One of the problems with capitalism is the commodification of that human interaction (or what that human interaction used to provide for free). Really only the last point diverges, but it is somewhat related in that a shared set of activities can bring forth positive human interactions (e.g. progressive movements have come up or gained momentum from church gatherings, see the civil rights movement in the US).
