I came across it on hacker news a few days back. I skipped through the technical bits since they are very basic but the story of the VP and the man in the taupe blazer is very enjoyable. With a story like this there is always the risk you are going to demonize either the business guy or the tech guy but his caricature like representation of each allows the reader to avoid taking sides and appreciate both perspectives.
