Context?


He quit his job. It was a letter to some of the employees at work. His last effort to inspire them.


I guess I inferred that much. Unless there's something more to it, it sounds like he spent a little too much time trying to introduce new technologies. In real life, even managers have a hard time forcing tools on people--there are various good and bad reasons for this. For a co-worker to say--for instance--"We need to replace this Java code with Lisp", is definitely the short road to ridicule.

Throwing away working systems, processes, technologies, well...not usually wise.
