I’d love to hear more about this. What happened to this guy and the debugger?
I’m guessing he got fired and moved to a cabin in the woods. No way talent of that level can exist in a corporate environment too long. Too much jealousy, etc and the higher ups usually can’t stand someone who won’t play by their rules even if the results speak for themselves.
He continued to be a very highly paid contractor. The last time
I communicated with him was many years ago. He had married another friend of mine, and they relocated overseas. He was doing contract programming for high performance network hardware back then.

Hope I’m wrong.
