GitHub: Where everything comes to die



Summary: It's not terribly hard to see why Balabhadra (Alex) Graveley has deleted his accounts, as did Nat Friedman, who also lost his coveted "GitHub CEO" status last month

A week ago the Travis County Criminal Courts had Microsoft’s Chief Architect of GitHub Copilot, Balabhadra (Alex) Graveley, in the dockets. Prior to that we had published a number of posts about his arrest and showed that Nat Friedman, GitHub's CEO at the time, was trying to 'hide' because he's extremely close to Mr. Graveley. This is Nat Friedman's wife blowing a kiss to Mr. Graveley (and later posting a photo of it, herself, in her public album):

"We're still going through some holidays and we'd rather not post an installment as long as the usual."If Friedman himself isn't afraid of being seen as connected to Mr. Graveley, then Microsoft itself certainly has something to worry about [1, 2]. This might explain why Friedman was removed at such short notice (only a fortnight). That's why Microsoft quietly removed Bill Gates from its Board last year (the details about how he was sexually pursuing women and cheating on the wife came to the surface only a year later; these helped distract from his close ties to underage sex trafficking). Mr. Graveley is his own jar (or can) of worms; in the words of a former partner: (please note that we have no reasons to suspect this is untrue, it's just embarrassing and extremely damaging)

GitHub Copilot stories

We're still going through some holidays and we'd rather not post an installment as long as the usual. But rest assured, we have plenty more to show in months to come, along with impeccable evidence.

“What’s this about pay-grade? It’s a military term, often misappropriated by civilians who are avoiding an ethical decision. It’s a good excuse in the military: politicians are accountable for the decision to enter a war, while the military are oath-bound to follow orders at pain of court-martial and possibly execution, and are only accountable for the conduct of the war. But Miguel is no soldier. He’s the founder of a company previously merged into Novell, and would not be subject to treason charges or capital punishment over this issue. Others, like Jeremy Allison, chose to leave the company while Miguel stayed.”
