Uber’s head of developer product leaves citing Kalanick’s ouster

He isn't head of anything. He's a first level product manager that gave himself the title "Head of Developer Product". Recode wrote this last night and TechCrunch just cut and paste it. This is how fake news gets propagated.

&gt;Fb comments:<p>&gt;Yifu Diao, Software Engineer at Uber I guess &quot;head of developer product&quot; is a fancier title than &quot;Product Manager, API Partnerships&quot;<p>&gt;Kevin DeArmond, Software Engineer at Uber Apparently Josh doesn&#x27;t check his sources...<p>Maybe it&#x27;s time for a blog AllthingsUber, with some blogger from Recode or some techblog, they can build their Uberish image like how John Gruber built. The amount of reckless coverage on this Uber makes me wonder, how much of these are <i>Sponsored Stories</i>

cs: hello yes recode i&#x27;m a departing mid-level product manager at uber and i&#x27;d like some free PR for my personal brand and the consulting i&#x27;m doing<p>recode: can we frame the whole thing as uber clickbait?<p>cs: yes<p>recode: ok!

Chris Saad was my product manager at Uber. We worked together from when we both started in May 2015 to when I left Uber this past February.<p>Chris is an extraordinary product manager, and I can&#x27;t wait to see what he does next. :)

More quality reporting from the famous Josh Constine. Even a minute of fact-checking between the mindless copying and pasting would be a welcome change.

It might be the right time for the people at Uber to self-select based on their values.
