He doesn't have a fulltime job. He applied to Mozilla to get a fulltime job. They rejected him even though they knew his reputation and that he is in desperate need to get one to avoid eviction and starving to death because his savings account ran out of money (which, given his post, will probably be soon-ish).

Wendy's would probably hire anyone. Just saying that even flipping burgers is better than ranting on the internet wrt feeding your family.
