They aren't that helpful, because at best they let you cover one Manhattan avenue block worth of distance more quickly. They are pretty drat whimsical though.

As a professional security rear end in a top hat/linux dev, it bums me out that non-it nerds itt are acting like taking your job too seriously is an IT thing. Its really more of a goon thing as evidenced by that lumberjack guy in the game of thrones thread getting mad about some characters woodworking skills or whatever. Could be a west coast US thing i guess tho, where im at IT is basically seen as accounting or plumbing or whatever other boring middle class trade.

IT guys are the road-workers and traffic engineers of computers. Vital for anything to work at all and yet not given any respect.

Great article in the New Yorker re: Silicon Valley. I thought this bit was particularly apt. http://www.newyorker.com/culture/culture-desk/how-silicon-valley-nails-silicon-valley?mbid=social_twitter quote:“Silicon Valley,” a show about computer nerds, has a fan base that is particularly attuned to minutiae, and particularly apt to argue about them on the Internet. If a Post-it, URL, or line of code is legible on the show, it will be screengrabbed and scrutinized. edit: Another choice quote: quote:And then, while we’re (TJ Miller and Elon Musk) talking, some woman comes up and says ‘Can I have a picture?’ and he (Musk) starts to pose—it was kinda sad, honestly—and instead she hands the camera to him and starts to pose with me. It was, like, Sorry, dude, I know you’re a big deal—and, in his case, he actually is a big deal—but I’m the guy from ‘Yogi Bear 3-D,’ and apparently that’s who she wants a picture with.” SnatchRabbit fucked around with this message at 04:24 on Jun 12, 2016 |

Something about the board getting to approve sales of shares, and the board basically being her. So she shot down the $5M deal with Russ and paid Erlich the minimum that he could accept for all of his shares.

So let's see... Erlich fucks himself by associating himself with Bighead. He further fucks himself by spending Bighead's money, nearly bankrupting himself because of how he set up his partnership. Then he is forced to sell his shares at a pittance because of the hosed-up rules of the corporation. But then he super-fucks himself by writing that article instead of talking about a lovely jacket. But hey, he's CEO now!

I also love how you kept thinking Gavin and Jack were going to end up taking the same private jet to ~J-Hole~, but Judge had to work in that jab at the 0.001%.

withak posted:Something about the board getting to approve sales of shares, and the board basically being her. So she shot down the $5M deal with Russ and paid Erlich the minimum that he could accept for all of his shares. Russ had written in a provision that the board (Laurie, in effect) had to approve of all transfers of stock. When Bachman went to see her with a "business proposition", he was seeking approval to sell half of his stock to Russ for 5 million dollars. She vetoed this and any other sale to anyone but herself, then offered Bachman 713k (the exact amount of his debt) for all of his stock. Basically it was a huge dick move on her part that left Bachman with nothing. Edit - Except half of Code/Rag, which his insider scoops on his own incompetence has put on the path to being a multi-million $ powerhouse.

Haha. All of Richard's detractors re-surfaced this episode. No way we're not getting some anti-piper collab between Jack and Gavin with Russ somehow edging in on the action. Laurie is a loving monster.

I really like the private jets scene, where at no point they think of sharing a plane despite going to the same place for the same period of time and clearly wanting to talk to each other. The "contact me on hooli to play chess while we fly" part was great.
