Good job. I’ve quit a job similarly over ethical issues. But this is the problem with software engineering lacking an ethical standard: there’s always Bob, three desks down, who is willing to build the Torment Nexus. One person’s ethical stand is meaningless.
Thanks. When I quit that job I didn't really have any other option lined up. But I had just finished my PhD and someone there at the university offered me a postdoc for six months and then I won a little grant that let me stay like another year and then I won another one for 3 years, and I started working at an AI company in my city. But at the time I was like, fuck now what am I going to do? Haha.
