Maybe you're just used to seeing him in "on" mode (giving legendary conference presentations) and he's more subdued when doing everyday work.

It's a bit distasteful to virtually follow him around and speculate about his mental health.




After two years at Cognitect (pre-nubank), I can say that his talks are more subdued than his usual way of speaking (in slack, at least). He's not as mild-mannered as he appears.


Observing a public figure and expressing concern that their workplace doesn't align with their passions isn't prying into their personal life, or speculating about their mental health. What I'm saying is: NuBank is where hopes and dreams go to die, and corporate life more generally. It's not about being "on" or "off" but about being in an environment one can thrive.
