I think what this sets up is that the whole company is pointless without its engineers. Richard, Gilfoyle, and Dinesh are the only three people not employed by Endframe who have any sort of comprehension of how the technology works. If Jack fires them, or pushes them to quit, he basically has a sales staff and an IP that nobody actually understands how to use.

Jack was ultimately another Russ Hanneman, interested only in a quick payout and not in actually building anything or establishing long-term viability.

There's a bit of legal boilerplate called a severability clause that basically says "if any part of this contract is invalidated, the rest stands"'. They exist to prevent the season 2 finale from happening. (Also if you're the party with more power in the negotiation you can pull stuff like sticking blatantly illegal and unenforceable clauses in your contacts without endangering the contract itself when one of your, say, tenants gets wise and sues your rear end.)

He and TJ Miller were great in that episode of The League where they were cult members.

Erlich is reminding me of Taco from later seasons of The League, when they lost track of how to write him as thoughtless and tactless but not actively malevolent and turned him into an aggressive rear end in a top hat.

I knew Monica had bad news about the beta when I realized she was wearing the same beige sweater she wears (at Laurie's advice) to give the team bad news back in season 2. e:

I legitimately don't understand how the response to "our UX is garbage" isn't "hire a UX team".

M_Gargantua posted:One person steers, they generally have the seat in the "back" thats slightly elevated. Its kinda fun, and the best ones have minibars in the center with someone who knows the area steering while the drunk people just peddle. (The driver also has a clutch to disconnect everybody peddling so he can stop the bike) I saw one of these pedaling around Asheville a couple of years ago. I dunno what kind of liquor license you have to have to sell alcohol under those circumstances.

Late-era Peggy episodes lean hard into her worse qualities until she's just an oblivious rear end in a top hat all the time instead of being just kind of conceited.

There used to be a service where you could share files with the rest of the network in exchange for devoting a chunk of your hard drive to an encrypted portion of the network's files, with no way of knowing what that chunk contained. Guess what kind of files that service was full of.
