Qiaochu Yuan (no relationship to the man accused of soliciting a child) left his PhD program to become an “emotional coach.” If his old tweets are any guide then Doctor, heal thyself. G. Duleba and Ozy picked similar careers rather than coaching a soccer team or teaching freshman English like most people who want to be teachers and mentors.

It kind of makes a twitsted sense that so many of them go into life coaching. In their hermetically sealed subculture of highly paid, socially inept nerds, it’s probably pays the bills to set yourself up as an authority on reading social cues.

This sort of stuff makes me feel bad for Ozy. After a decade pushing back against this shit the community still likes it.
