If you threaten to resign, I don't think you should complain if the other side says "ok".



But it's still up to you to resign at that point, or to back down.

They can't accept the threat itself as a resignation. That's not how threats work.


I really dont understand this logic.

Firstly, there is ample evidence of her toxic behaviour online. (See the exchange with lecun on twitter, absolutely horrible). So its clear she has issues with how to collaborate and communicate.

She then goes on to threaten the company she works for. Like wtf? Irrespective of what you want to do in response, act like a professional. If you were a CEO/Manager etc and had someone with toxic behavior come in and threaten you if you didnt comply to their demands, wouldnt you go 'ok, see ya'. I certainly would. Everyone is replaceable. Especially if youre toxic when it comes to dealing with situations you dont agree with

Which is fine, but that's firing them for acting up. It doesn't really matter what the demands are.
