Used to work for this asshole. He’s just as much as a hack as Elizabeth Holmes.

    Makes sense. You have to be that to become a tech celebrity among elites, competence and intelligence are not things they respect, it's actually a principal part of their worldview that competence and intelligence are for servants or simpletons, and real apex predator is, well, that kind of hack. They just won't believe that you are really able to achieve something if you are not.

    Her personally? Not that we know.

    But did people die because of the massive blood testing fraud that she engaged in where people didn't get medical care when they should have because they were getting back false negatives and faulty tests were being used to determine things like the proper doses of potentially dangerous medications like Warfarin? Almost certainly.
