I specifically remember this forum recommending chaos monkeys and that spurring me to read the whole thing. it was an enjoyable read about someone’s views of ad tech, ripping on the valley, his British girlfriend, how not to start a company, and a dumb chapter about racing his buddy in a Tesla roadster

i remember readin it and thinkin the dude shouda used a pen name cuz itll prolly get him fired from some place

and here we are

imploding your own company by being a dumbass and then "saving" it after "realising that change had to come from within" or something is 100% silicon valley techbro narrative compliant

wasnt their whole point that they werent in silicon valley and they werent techbros, hence the swift implosion when they revealed their dipshittery?
