I don't understand why Paul thinks so highly of Sam Altman, supposedly a guy with a 40 year old soul [1], that he even made him partner at yc.
I saw plenty of writhing away from the blame (It's a bug!), instead of admitting his mistake and apologizing publicly.
I saw a lame joke written by Sam in this thread (shortly pulled after by the author) that was something to the effects of "I wouldn't help clean his house, he clearly doesn't like me".
If I saw all this and I was on the board, I would've already called a quick board meeting to replace the current CEO.

I noticed that too. That comment was pulled right as I (author of original post) entered the thread.
I repeat... I have nothing personal against Sam. Never met the guy.
