I too feel a bit sorry for Mike Hearn after reading his write up on the current state of affairs. He is quite right and on the spot on most of his post and one can clearly see he wanted to change something and leave a dent on Bitcoin for the better and that this talk and all of the disregard for a block size increase made him tired.

I think he did well on going away, sad to see he didn't have much of a chance.

Have you just popped out from under a rock? Hearn wanted to subvert an entire Country by checkpointing blocks!

He was definitely out of tune with that one, but I do think that motivating block size discussion was more relevant than some of the crap he put out after starting the fire.

It's not easy to be in a team, trying to push a change you truly believe in and you are sure that will be a good contribution and being constantly thrown out and dragged down.
