Though the last episode of this famous TV series aired on 8th December, I watched it only today. I didn’t wish to say goodbye to Pied Piper, its CEO Richard Hendricks, Gilfoyle, Dinesh, Jared and rest of the misfits running Silicon Valley companies.
The HBO series started in 2014 with a young coding wizard ‘Richard’ presenting at TechCrunch Disrupt with his super cool compression technology. He and his team come on the limelight, but starting a company, getting funded, keeping your employees and investors happy while fending of competition was a complete roller-coaster. Luck was never with these guys, many a times success slips away from them at the last step, yet they keep going – pivot after pivot – investor after investor.
The climax made me sad, probably I need a retreat to “Tibet” to heal myself – Erlich Bachman, are you still there, can I join you?
