Adria Richards fired by SendGrid for calling out developers on Twitter

First off, this is not 'industry news'. This is gossip.

Second, pg's official response: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5416908

Their twitter announced this news too, not just facebook, and they are continuing to post status updates on their services so I don't think they were hacked...

Just saw it - pg or whoever removed my previous submission, at least communicate why you removed it when doing so in the future, even if it's just a link to another thread.

Less confusion = less hassle

They're deleting everything related to this. Somebody thinks Sendgrid was hacked and this is all bullshit, at least that's the excuse.

I would of fired her so this news wouldn't of surprised me to be honest..
