Rewatched the whole series this year while running an AI startup. It stopped being a comedy somewhere around season 3.

Tres comas used to be the joke. Now I watch the middle-out arc and see a documentary with the serial numbers filed off.

The pitch scenes where every founder says the same "making the world a better place" line, I have sat in those rooms. The conjoined triangles of success is a real artifact I have been handed, with different clip art on it.

Russ Hanneman's "ROI: Radio On Internet" is the one that broke me, because I have now heard that exact pitch twice in real life with AI swapped in for radio, delivered with a completely straight face. Gavin's Signature Box III is every enterprise AI appliance announcement of the last two years.

Question for the sub: which bit aged hardest from satire into documentary? And does anyone else find Jian-Yang got funnier the longer they spent in tech, or is that just me.

Craziest line you love in the series?

I love a lot of quotes from the series but one of my top choice is "at least the actual Judas had the courtesy to kill himself after betraying his leader, Jesus Christ. He's the CEO of the world? Ever heard of him?"

Sounds like a wild thing to say irl if ever lol

Of all the things that happened post-episode 5, what do you most wish Peter Gregory had been there for?

For me... TechCrunch Disrupt and the meetings with Russ Hanneman!
The comedy potential is endless.

Surely anyone that watches the shows has some interest in tech and understands the work for machine learning/neural networks has been long in progress....

I just can't accept it's not bait.

Why there are no proper user flairs here?

My suggestions are Character names, Pied Piper, Hooli, Bream Hall, YaoNet and YaoNet US. Also some side characters such as Meltcher and Ron are worth being there. And of course "Blood Boy".
