For anyone who hasn't read it, check out "Bad Blood," by John Carreyou. It's a detailed rise and fall story of Theranos and would be tech messiah Elizabeth Holmes.

She hoodwinked many rich, famous, smart, and well-connected people who wanted to believe for many years. She also imperiled many lives, lied to investors, and deceived the FDA.

A real psycho, IMHO, who should serve some time, and never be allowed to have a position of power in any public company, EVER.

SoftBank is a Japanese Holding Company. Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere redux?

Interesting book for sure.
The amazing part was how many high level domos were on the BoD and had no clue this thing was a scam.
Makes you suspect everything.

I also watched the documentary “Inventor: Out for Blood in Silicon Valley”, which was originally an HBO documentary. I think I saw it on Netflix, but it is also on youtube.

The clips of Holmes, and the interviews with various employees are very interesting.

Did you watch that?

I saw it. But I'd recommend the book, Bad Blood more. I was offered a job there years ago.

Most things that claim to be exceptional aren’t.

But, if you close your mind completely to the possibility, you’ll miss that rare needle in the haystack. But those are rare, and many of us don’t encounter them.

A failing among the previously successful, with sucessful friends, is that of sometimes assuming too much when meeting new, um, claimants.

Offered a job?

What was your impression of the place? Why’d you turn it down? Was it early or late in the game?

Probably not, but the Japanese are not the great friend that we believe. They have never really abandoned their vision of an Asian Japanese Empire, of course with the Chinese subordinate to them.

The book was great. Yes, very much a sociopath. Frightening how many people were taken in by her.
