"VP of Eng who doesn't sleep".

Would be really great to remove that description, no one should lionize that behavior.

Given that the CEO is a muppet, you don't think this is meant to be fun?

I do think it was meant to be fun.

My point was that joking about that kind of culture is not a good thing and proliferation of the sleepless founder/employee/programmer that permeates startup culture is a bit ugly.

I thinking worrying about how every little saying could possibly harm the world causes more harm vs leaving the slide as a funny joke.

"First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me."

Please don't do this here.

Peppa Pig doesn't sleep. She merely sits in waiting during the nighttime hours.
