Follow up: Thiel gave a (teenage) Summer some $$$ (ironically, the exact amount I guessed at randomly in my previous post!):
reply>In 2014, Peter Thiel's Thiel Foundation awarded a 19-year-old Jarred Sumner $100,000 along with mentorship.
So Thiel gave Summer, as a young starting entrepeneur, a $100k prize ... can you really fault him for liking Thiel a little after that? Apparently the OP does, and will refuse to use a technology Summer created simply because of it.
Dude, are you trying to justify your ties to an ultra-fascist just because he got paid for it? How disgusting.
replyI'm saying if I'm a young dev, and I get $100k from a famous VC, I'm going to lean towards being a little bit more positive about him than most people ...
reply... but that doesn't justify boycotting the young dev and everything he ever makes in the future.
Look at what he posted...
replyIf someone considered Peter Thiel an ultra fascist, wouldn't a great thing to do be to take his money and spend it on... not fascist things?
