    When someone at our company meeting someone bluntly asked "You stated you were the interim CEO and that reddit was looking for one to replace Yishan. Are we still looking for a new CEO, and if not, why should we trust you to do the job?"

    She literally responded with "You'll have to pry this position from my cold, dead hands!!!" which was met with applause. To be totally honest, I just sat there dumbfounded. It was one of the most non-answers I had ever heard.

I don't want to make an ass out of myself by claiming reddit's really Digg v4ing itself and will be dead soon, but I hope other communities like it will learn from the baffling mistakes it made.
