I don't know what this actually means. Should Hashicorp's employees work for no money, because ideals are more important than money?
Money is just necessary. It doesn't matter if other things are more important on some theoretical hierarchy. If you need a necessary thing then that's all that matters.
Having followed Mitchell Hashimoto’s work on Vagrant, I felt like he and Armon were truly value driven and not purely money oriented.
But it’s true, dollars corrupt and billions of dollars corrupt absolutely.
