Meanwhile I can read other Bluesky posts without logging in. So yeah, I'd say it looks like robpike is explicitly asking for this content to not be public and that submitting a screenshot of this post is just a dick move.

If there was something controversial in a post that motivates public interest warranting "leaking" then sure, but this is not that.

He did share a public version of this on Mastodon, which I think would have been a much better submission.

IMO the current dramabait title "Rob Pike Goes Nuclear over GenAI" is not appropriate for either.
