I was just thinking to myself, this looks like when Quora backed the wrong conceptual horse and Cheever got eased out by Adam D'Angelo, and then I realize D'Angelo is involved here too.

I'm calling it. This is a pattern. Exceptionally technically talented people mount coups with a particular signature.

1. it tracks incredibly well that you were active on Quora during its heyday

2. fascinating

3. do you think openai still ships products after this or turns inward?

~2012-13 or so, I was active on Quora and left because it went down a weird bad design path that was driven by D'Angelo, who eased out the other co-founder, Charlie Cheever, who I think had much better product instincts, though D'Angelo was the hacker genius type building it. This feels similar.
