1/ François is getting a lot of heat for this. Yes, it can be argued that he’s belittling the hard work of others. That's a less charitable interpretation. But I doubt he had ill intent. Is it his responsibility to make sure nobody’s feelings get hurt in his venting over a tool? https://twitter.com/fchollet/status/1205941768023236608 …
3/ but my guess is it’s the common smart engineering nerd variety and that’s pretty easy for me to forgive as I can definitely relate to that and am still working on undoing that after all these years. That gets tough when people keep telling you you’re great lol

So your defense of him boils down to giving him a pass at being arrogant because probably he gets to hear too often how great an engineer he is. I respect that, but I really hope you can see how that won't resonate with most people.

Really what I'm trying to say is that he's still human, and even more importantly, he's a champion of a lot of good causes and doesn't shrink from making a stink about them publicly. I'm willing to give him a pass on this because on the whole, he's awesome.
