"I can't speak to any current events," wrote the person in Hacker News, "but I was an employee of Ximian, formerly Helix Code, from 2000 to 2004. I also lived with Alex for a year around 2001 and/or 2002, when we lived just down the street from Nat. Nat and Alex were always exceptionally close, which I always found confusing. Alex was intense, passionate, charismatic, but also had troubled and troubling relationships with people, _particularly_ women. Alex was, if I remember correctly, let go from Ximian when he failed to arrive to work every day by noon for one week straight (we lived a 5 to 10 minute walk from the office)."
Now Alex (hiding behind another name when that suits him) not only attacks women but also people who merely report what he did to women. Here they are (Friedman and him) just a few days before Matthew Garrett filed his frivolous lawsuit (he had sent his first SLAPP a few days before his litigation buddy got arrested and week after Friedman lost his CEO role, as announced when we published this article).
