I first heard about Andy Yen from his claim that Gail Slater's appointment was proof the current administration will be more effective enforcing anti-trust and was the "party of the little guy." And lately he's saying stuff like this (from the linked 404 Media Article):
>According to the report, an employee in Proton's security Slack channel urged the company to take at least a few days to pentest newly written code before pushing it live. Yen replied, at the end of August: "That's bullshit and loser thinking. Of course it's possible to be fast and secure." He added: "Stop thinking always of how to be slower, and focus more on how to be faster." In a follow-up message he wrote "only losers think like that," and his message to the team was to "stop lovingly handcrafting all our code and use AI more."
I think he's terminally online in a way that fried his brain. And I used to think his 88 tattoo was just a coincidence but now I honestly would believe anything.
It's interesting because he could have said that using slightly different words and had a point and he could have even been right.
Engineers are delicate.
I'm on both sides of that fence always.
Instead of 'don't pent test' it should be 'proportional measures' and definitely should be trying to leverage AI as much as is possible. Which is complicated of course for a company that has a certain kind of brand. They literally do not need to be banging out features.

Is there anything corroborating this 88 tattoo? I will close my account with them tomorrow if I can see a believable source for this.

Words are important and Andy’s choice of language and delivery rightfully calls into question of his leadership capabilities.
It’s a stark contrast to the posts we’ve been seeing on Patrick Stewart’s portrayal of Picard as to what it means to be a good leader.
Having your campaign’s mailing address be a Tutanota one was presumably calculated to raise Andy’s blood pressure.
