Sean has been on Jon's stream, and there's a good video where briefly Sean states that he have Jon some syntax advice for Jon's language Jai.

I assumed they were friends as there are several videos of them conversing. The parent comment pointed out that Sean agree's with the negatives about Jon, which could not mean much, but the fact that Jon's negative as described in the Dreknek are really bad indicates to me that Sean likely doesn't view Jon as a good friend anymore. This is surprising to me because I really did enjoy one of their videos where they try and solve a problem together.

The fact that Sean agrees with this critical take of Jon is further evidence of how much Jon has changed since the pandemic.

STB Is the intial's for Sean T Barrett, who also created a software library with the same name.

Frankly STB is a bit of a lefty nutjob, those types are known for excommunicating good friends over minor political schisms... Talking from experience.

Ah I honestly don't know about STB aside from his header libraries and his tech talks, what makes you think he's a lefty nutjob? Briefly looking over his website and X profile, he seems like he's on the left side of the political spectrum, but what inparticular gives you the impression he's a nutjob?
