she's a woman, so no

...

Who is this?
What did she do?
Why should I care?
Is this even tech related?

She's the one that promised a new revolutionary blood test tecnology without any real research on the subject. She literally bullshitted her startup company into 4.5 billion in investment without a single proof she could deliver.

And somehow she became a beacon for STEM feminists on how womyn can do it too.

Holmes was, in many ways, embodying that HN mentality, acting on the basis:
- that an entire industry has been doing it wrong
- that it can be fixed by a low-bureaucracy, Angel-funded startup
- that once you have enough success you can just rewrite the laws that were slowing you down
- that no one knows what they're doing anyway, major projects are 100% guesswork, and you should just "fake it till you make it"
- that any skill is just a matter of 10,000 hours of practice
- that you can outsmart an industry before even passing or placing out of sophomore level classes
- that any self-doubt must be Impostor Syndrome, and so it's not worth your time to even check if that doubt has a factual basis

Ah, right. I remember her. Meh, I don't even give a fuck. If some filthy rich jews ended up losing money because they were too greedy, nothing of value was lost.

she's the female elon musk but already got caught

Theres more to it than that. They actually had a machine, they were actually carrying out tests. It was that their machine didn't work, they knew it didn't work, they lied about what the machine could detect, and they gave some people fake results. They basically claimed that their machine could predict how long you were going to live off of a blood test, thats why they got so much money.

The dumb blonde was just a front for it all.

Difference is Elon Musk was already a billionaire before he started scamming people.

Not that similar. Holmes made and lost her money by the fraudulent valuation of Theranos. Musk made his money from the cum bubble valuation of Paypal.

No. Investors don't deserve a bail-out just because they blindly believed someone who didn't have any proof. Investment is risky no matter how you look at it. That means you need to be extra cautious, and accept responsibility for your own losses.

Martin Shkreli = 7 years, $7.5M fine Investor capital lost = ~$0 Elizabeth Holmes = $500k fine, D&O bar Company value lost = ~$8 billion

Shkreli didn't follow the unwritten rules and was obnoxious, even got the congress mad. Meanwhile Holmes had members of congress in her board room lmao. She did everything right in her wrongdoing, that's how she got this far. Shkreli did everything wrong in his wrongdoing.

actually she could have been a major success if she just exploited the media just like Musk. This alone could make your company survive and make profit regardless of how shitty the product is

Only if you think Melissa Mayer wasn't a good CEO

Did you guys know that KISSINGER was a member of the board of directors of Theranos?

/thread

AFAIK she literally forged lab tests. You can't talk your way out of that

she's an attactive white woman, chance are nil that she'll face jail.

Jews and Arabs are Semites, not White.

You must be desperate if you find this shitstain hot.

They never said she is hot, only that she is attractive. You don't have to be hot or sexy to be attractive.

Musk at least gets results just not as quickly as hoped/promised. Tesla cars are real and work well albeit production is really slow. Space-X can actually launch and land for re-use a rocket, etc. Plenty of businessmen/companies put money into crazy ideas (hyperloop) that probably wont work but who knows maybe they will and if not we will still probably get some good tech from the research that can be used elsewhere. I mean people used to think computers were pointless and impossible ~100 years ago and anyone investing in them was labelled an idiot. Then suddenly we had the silicon revolution and everyone wanted in.

Holmes literally faked lab blood tests. That would be like Musk sell a Tesla that was secretly a petrol car yet claiming it was battery powered.

She looks like an uggo widow

Don't act like Tesla isn't a shitshow

Come back when you land a rocket on its ass

desu i dont know a whole lot about the company. a neighbour has a model s though and it is a nice car. he loves it although the way he talks about it is kinda like how people talk about apple products so i figure it is just a nice car and not actually as amazing as he makes it out to be. my point was that at least tesla does produce working cars

>Impostor Syndrome
sick of this reddit tier meme

she scammed money from rich people so ofc

That's not a great achievement if you see how simple is an electric car.

downplaying achievements is the sign of a brainlet

If that's an achievement for you.

lol
what's next? comparing a Jaguar to a model T? an i7 to a 386?

Idiot.

if it is so simple how come nobody else has done it to any success before tesla?

lol

The 386 doesn't have speculative execution, so it's more secure.

Jaguars are less reliable than a Model T.

Because companies have a lot of money and they use that money to make sure no one else can make any money

this lol if you refund investors because they took a risk and lost, they don't deserve money when they take a risk and win.

you can't keep the earnings and share the loss. that's not how things work...

I hope she goes in for many years, but she won't because wymen

Efficiency is the biggest problem in electric vehicles, if they go too fast the battery dies fast if you want battery to last then you go slow and very light. Tesla cars are just like common cars but electric powered, they have every confort a normal car can have, have speed and autonomy.

Depends how many Jewish investors got scammed.

Model S recap:

- looks nice on the outside.
- looks crappy on the inside.
- retarded touchscreen.
- going zero to 50 at maximum acceleration feels like a roller coaster, always fun with new people on board.
- after doing the zero to 50 party trick 15 times you stop doing it because it utterly destroys the tires.

Ofc not, she's a woman. Her children need a mother, you know.

From what it sounds like here, some investors got majorly fucked
Oh well
Investing is a risk reward game, that's what can happen
Not like she sold things, just talked and grabbed her investments

Lol isn't she still being sued by male programmers for wrongful termination.

if she forged documents she should get jail time, maybe pay the "victims" a fine, but certainly not a full bail-out

Save your money, her deal with the SEC involves zero jail time
