We're taking you to the future in a very special tech show! First, Noah Kulwin (@nkulw) explains the rise and fall of Theranos and Elizabeth Holmes and how to make a living camming in your part-time Uber gig. Next, Ed Zitron (@EdZitron) joins us for a reading series, translating the Daily Beast's insane article urging the formation of a Silicon Valley paramilitary cell to wipe out democracy. We also debut the trailer for a new and exciting project of Chapo Motion Pictures, "Killer App." BECOME A GREY WOLF: https://www.patreon.com/chapotraphouse BUY TIX TO OUR SATURDAY LIVE SHOW: https://t.co/yXx3OEh1Fl Genre News & Politics Comment by daniel williams 215 LMAO! 2016/10/05 16:51:42 +0000 Comment by HÚNA today at work i was imagining a distopia just like that 2016/10/05 01:04:17 +0000 Comment by Petuniia Daily Beast on How Silicon Valley is going to disrupt democracy 2016/10/01 18:18:20 +0000 Comment by Petuniia second segment starts, Ed Zitron for a reading series 2016/10/01 17:49:03 +0000 Comment by Tristan Kavanagh life extension is possible though, we've done it in mice, and there are animals that live indefinitely, but i don't think it could happen in the way silicon valley imagines, especially when even the things theyve done so far have traditionally relied on publically funded science. I think it would take increased public funding of basic research, a socialist system where people are empowered to do unprofitable research that won't pan out for decades, and generally the work of many people from many disciplines instead of like Great Man Startup Visionary puts money on it and it happens 2016/10/01 11:56:46 +0000 Comment by Jeffrey Migliozzi s/o Pittsburgh.
