First, this is pretty rough what happened to the person. My condolences.

Second, completely tangential to the content of the blog post: Was anyone else surprised by the number of comments/"mentions"/likes/reposts? I haven't seen so much activity on a single blog post in years. Normally, blog posts that accept comments have 10 or less comments. This one has hundreds.

Their blog looks like it's integrated with Bluesky, where they have 15K followers, so that's where the activity is coming from. It's not uncommon for high-profile devs to get that much engagement there.
