Gonna make a thread with the rest of what I've been reading.

Also highly recommend “Super Pumped: The Battle for Uber" by Mike Isaac. It’s the best account of Uber's crazy years you can get short of working there. Many, many lessons about how and how not to run a tech business. 😅

An excerpt that says, “(Travis Kalanick) went on to advise his staff not to throw large kegs off of tall buildings, and mandate no interoffice sex unless co-workers explicitly stated “YES! I will have sex with you” to one another. He also noted that any puking on hotel grounds would result in a $200 fine. The email set the tone for the rest of the retreat.”
