Re: Sexy Steve Jobs Costume: The Theranos Thread
Is vs. Ought. Many, many guys in the tech industry ought not to be sexist, racist dipshits, but pointing that out won't fix anything. Get women, etc. in there and cudgel those guys in the head when they misbehave, and they either stop or hide it enough not to matter.Painboy wrote:While I have no problem with diversity I think it is more guys need to learn to stop thinking with their dick in a professional environment (if that is the reason she seems to be getting a pass despite basically committing fraud).Fin Fang Foom wrote:This is what happens when you are surrounded by all bros.

Re: Sexy Steve Jobs Costume: The Theranos Thread
I actually think this is their attempt at diversity. They probably think, "Hey fraud and law breaking is how you become successful in the Valley. Look at Zynga, Uber or any number of other unicorns. " it's just that people are a wee bit more sensitive to medical fraud.

zynga and uber under the same heading is a bit harsh yo.
Re: Sexy Steve Jobs Costume: The Theranos Thread
Because Zynga loses money at a lower rate?

Uber may also end up being responsible for setting back acceptance of self driving cars by 5 years.

I think they're bringing it back because they're offering them as no interest loans as opposed to charging crazy high fees for them.Kolohe wrote:Me too, esp since it seems like they bringing back that instant refund thing, which almost put in in permanent FTC purgatory last time.JasonL wrote:Hypothesized this was about John Hamm's unfortunate new commercials.

Re: Sexy Steve Jobs Costume: The Theranos Thread
I really want to hear from the people in on this and why they allowed things to go this route. If I had been hired and then found out there was no working super testing machine and someone suggested we secretly buy outside stuff and pass it off as ours, I would have walked out the door that very moment. Did the she have blackmail material on people or something?Mo wrote:Disruption! Though part of me has only a tiny bit of sympathy for the hedge fund. Due diligence, how does it fucking work?

Theranos did tests on board members using vein draws rather than pin pricks, but they continued to believe in the pin prick technology:

Re: Sexy Steve Jobs Costume: The Theranos Thread
There are some staggeringly stupid people posting on Hacker News:
I suspect we are going to see Theranos pivot to becoming a conventional medical technology company, probably focusing on lab tech for blood work analysis etc. They are likely to disappear from public consciousness until we hear about an acquisition by a Siemens type company.
They got here through hype, smoke and mirrors, but they now have the capital, social network and core organizational processes in place to do this and it is a rational path to recouping time and $ investments from everyone involved.

There is no indication of this. Why would you suggest that a proven and humiliated scam company has these capabilities?

* Capital: https://www.forbes.com/sites/petercohan ... /why-thera...
Theranos raised $750 million, including $633 million last year.
* Social Network: Theranos raised money from a wide range of influential investors who can support the company's efforts to secure new customers and who stand to lose to varying degrees if instead Theranos completely folds, even if it returns the remaining balance of funds raised.
* Core organizational processes: the company still has hundreds of employees on the payroll, most of whom are qualified professionals in this field. It is not trivial to recruit and bring together an organization like that. It's unlikely that most of those hundreds of people were directly involved in the shenanigans of the company.
I think those are 3 assets the company would use towards a pivot like I described. But you can't do it without removing the leader who got them here.
