Okay, I've been watching Silicon Valley. This show is so realistic and exaggerated that I find it painful to watch at times (especially the first couple episodes), but it's also funny as hell. It really helps to put things into perspective about why I'm now a consultant and not "exclusive" to a single corporation anymore.

Some observations:
- Notice that the interpersonal relationships between basically all the characters are pretty toxic. Everyone seems to be exploiting everyone else in some way, and money/wealth is a large motivator to most characters.
- Look at the above frame. Where's the programmer in the middle in this series? The person who works out, is empathetic, loves to program, but isn't a total and complete asshole.
