Old news but still rage inducing

There's a TV-series about the place. It's shit.

if it comes down to it i hope kim hits santa clara county

...

This is concerning because they're moving to worker's control and still tangled on ideology

Musk is based though, he is trying to make space travel and efficient cars.

Zuckerberg just sells your personal info to foreign governments.

Any other notable VC product clusterfucks like this?

This one is legendary, it is probably the most extreme clusterfuck I've ever read about. Long read but worth it:

i don't get it. why sell bags of juice that have to be squeezed? why not just sell regular cartons/jugs of juice like you get at the supermarket?

Because they can make profit off of each bag they sell, not to mention the "juicer" itself.

but why would anyone buy that instead of a $3 carton of juice?

"organic" and "easy"

you can buy organic juice at the supermarket. how is that any less easy?

I believe it was a lazy attempt to emulate these fuckers. The only problem of course being that the whole point of owning a juicer is the ability to get freshly squeezed vegetable and fruit juice without having to pay for the prepackaged, artificial shit.
