Eh, Wales is a grump but good on him for not entertaining this garbage style of gotcha interview.
It’s clickbait in video form. I’ve never heard of this interviewer and by all accounts I would have preferred to keep it that way. But by being a jerk, he has forced his way into multiple feeds of mine.
Wales certainly thought so. It’s a pretty pointless thing to stake your entire interview on, and all we get out of it is this low value clip. What a waste.
From what I have read, the other guy was getting a salary from Wales early on, which does sound like co-founder material to me. That point would have been worth bringing up instead of whatever noise this guy led with.
