Hi /kind/, this is my first post here, and while I always liked the presence of this board, I never wrote anything here, but I feel the need to talk to someone about this.
I feel like this whole site really hates Josh, the guy behind the failed abortion that was Infinity Next. I understand those people, the whole thing was garbage.
But I also feel for Josh. I'm a developer, and I've also been supported by someone that I really let down. A great programmer, who had faith in me, but I let him down, and I don't feel right even talking to him anymore, even if he's such a nice guy.
So when I read the "Infinity Never" post (link below), I felt really bad for Josh's situation, and I can imagine how bad he feels. People trusted him more than he managed to deserve, he had his chance, and he blew it. He let people down, people that believed him. He tried his best, and his best was shit. He had a great opportunity, and he probably doesn't even know if he'll get another chance like it (which is like I feel in life).
I'd feel awful to be in his shoes. I'm kinda poor too, so it's not like I can give him money or anything, and probably any adviceI could give would be a bit belittling for him (like scolding him for choosing PHP when NodeJS is something that exists). But still, I'd like to make him feel better because frankly, it must suck to be him at this moment, being "finally gone" from a place that hated him (seriously, 8chan really seemed to hate him, it must suck to feel like shit and have no way to convince people to feel otherwise anymore).
Is there anything I can do to be /kind/ to him? His life is probably going to go downhill from here, and that's sad.
