Our Reading
The launch follows a familiar script.
X (formerly Twitter) is once again the platform for a viral conversation, this time about VC horror stories. The stories are a mix of weird and infuriating, but not entirely surprising. It’s just another example of the tech industry’s “move fast and break things” mentality. The fact that these stories are only now being shared publicly is a reminder that the “open” and ” transparent” tech industry is often just a facade. VC horror stories are just the latest example of the “same old, same old” in tech.
