There was clear mental problems from the deep voice to the turtle neck's and everythig else.
Looking at circuits and understanding them are two different things. She wanted the power and the glory of innovating like Steve Jobs but she didn't how to get mission accomplished.
Elizabeth: I want to design a plane that can fly completely around the world on a single tank of gas.
Workers: We can't do that boss lady. Nobody can.
Elizabeth: My punani is your reward. Get on it.
Worker: I'm ghey so I'm not working for free! *snap fingers*
The difference between her and Steve Jobs is that Steve Jobs was actually talented. You can be a visionary but your vision has to be somewhat informed by the technical folks. If you say in 1990 “I want an electric car that goes 0-60 in 2 seconds” your development staff will say “Not gonna happen BUT we can make one that does it in 8 seconds”. A competent leader at that point needs to figure out if it’s true that it can’t happen and then determine if they wait until the product is ready or release the 8 second model and keep releasing year over year until they get the car to where the original vision is.
Elizabeth’s dumbass came up with some idiotic idea and DID not listen to the technical folk. She told everyone she could do all these test with a finger prick and then white privilege came and caked her up. THEN SHE STILLLLLL didnt listen to the technical folks. She should have been trying to damage control from the onset. She should have been trying to pivot and come up with a stop gap solution while they worked on the MiniLab.
BUT there was one issue and I think she found it out after the first bit of investment. Theranos was facetiously telling everyone that they can make a naked human take off from the ground and fly with no equipment or anything. As far as our knowledge goes, the only person that can detect all those ailments from a prick of Blood is the lord himself so she was assed out no matter what.
This just shows the ridiculousness going on in Silicon Valley. I don’t think she flaunted her sexuality but I think it made the Men decided to lower their inhibitions. If it was a Brotha walking in there talking about he can do the test with a finger prick they would have had Sanjay Gupta in there vetting every single aspect of the Edison and Minilab. Wanting to look under the tables the devices We’re on…seeing all the books.
They had like 300k in revenue and was valued at a billion. Kinda shit is that?
“This bitch thinks she cute, wait til John Carreyrou finds out the Minilab doesn’t work”
