I want to work on something where I can make a difference, and I think this is it. Paul Graham wrote (paraphrased from http://www.paulgraham.com/procrastination.html) one should at best work on things likely to be part of one's obituary. At this point I feel there'd be little difference if my obituary read "worked for 6 years at Facebook" vs. 7, 8 etc. But if I helped people get code written better, that's a lure I wasn't willing to not seize.
