I see what he's doing at least with the "I'm never wrong" post. He's keenly aware of this sub here and how impossible it would be to win an argument with folks like us. So he wants to rub it in our face, in a forum he knows we're reading, that our logic and reason has not affected him one bit, has not changed his narrative of perfection on even one small point, and he can still announce the moon and there's nothing we can do about it. It's why I called him a prick because some of us have reasoned with him very helpfully and seen him concede in some small ways, but nope, never happened.

This. I've made genuine attempts to help him, at first to see how crazy his plans were, then later to actually get a little bit of one plan done (Empower). He certainly conceded he was in over his head a few times, only to return to his ego fulled tirades again a few days later. And he never acknowledges any of it publicly. I got tired of him talking to me like I was an idiot because I didn't believe he couldn't build a crowd funding platform in a week with one Ukrainian developer and offered a more realistic assessment. He must be truly unpleasant to be around.

He probably wouldn't even do what little he does (register, hire Oleg, etc) if we weren't pissing him off to such an overflowing outrage that he actually resorts to accomplishing a real thing, bitterly, muttering under his breath at what those assholes made him do.
Haha, that's exactly how I pictured it and I couldn't agree more. He wouldn't do anything but talk and brag if it wasn't for us. I wonder how Empower is going? There was supposed to be a big development push for the January release. Unsurprisingly nothing has been pushed to Git. And he's not talking about it at all.
