He’s already added an entry about the whole incident to his resume:

EDIT: he has added three(!) separate mentions of the same incident to his résumé

what a weird thing to brag about on your resume. And then he says "case study cited on ... HackerNews" - that's funny!
No David Lyon in there. It goes straight from Luncheon to Martinez and Lynch to Mackey for Graduates and Candidates, respectively. Page 35
Interesting if the whole character was a scam. The current employer is not disclosed in his CV, qualifications are fake (also flagged on Reddit by someone who says they are an ex colleague https://www.reddit.com/r/aws/comments/1m0198c/comment/n3fiwk...) - what else?
To me personally, calling yourself a CTO with a CV entry that amounts to what an L5 in a FAANG does in a half, is a bit ridiculous. What title would HN recommend for such a position, instead?
