      I know this is the sad reality at most companies but when I put someone on a PIP I 100% expect them to improve and recover from whatever got them in the PIP.

        Guarantee you there’s a non zero chance you are the reason for their pip.

        I’ve been a cpo, a cdo, a head of design, a design mgr and an individual contributor. The sad reality is that rarely has a pip corrected anything and mostly it is used to push out individuals… individuals that often contribute great things.

        You work with people you want to succeed… others throw them to the wolves and it’s called a pip.

        I’d love to hear the situation that describes otherwise?

    Cant wait to see this. She’s terrifying and Fielder is imho the perfect foil to interview her.

    Its weird cuz she just ripped off a bunch of rich people, I dont really have any reason to hate her really but she’s sort of emblematic of what is problematic of startup and tech culture and in a sense identify culture where being the first ___ founder/CEO or one of few ____ founders/CEOs/whatever is part of the pitch.

    In a better world it would never have entered the equation much less overshadowed the actual lack of viable product/IP. How did no blood scientist/dr/expert not easily point out their premise was fatally flawed in a way that doomed the whole exercise, both internally and publicly?

    There were some after the fact and it was exposed who were casually like "ya, the blood available from a pinprick to the finger doesnt suffice for the grand vision Theranos was sold as and predicated upon

      They did. Every expert out there pointed out it’s impossible.

    You are an organic meme, not an advertisment being pushed by some big marketing firm to virally promote an upcoming movie, right?

    Why would I deceive you?

      Doesn’t really work to advertise a film if I don’t know what it is and it doesn’t give me any desire to see it

      A trailer dropped for some up coming movie with this chick in it and everyone’s been memeing the hell out of it.

      Here’s a link to the KnowYourMeme page and the trailer is in there if you want to see where it’s coming from. I’m not directly linking it cause I’m not advertising for them.

    Um, ackchually, PNG does not mean that it has an alpha channel. Even JPEG can have alpha channel (though its not standard feature and might break compatibility with some readers), but also AVIF and WebM.
