>> To convey status in Silicon Valley, wear jeans, drive a Tesla, tell
people you were hired by Facebook in 2005, and get married in a forest.
>> There’s a special place in hell for
anyone who makes you log in in order to unsubscribe from their email list.
>> Should we change the unsubscribe?
>> No, for us it’s fine.
>> I always work from coffee shops because I love painfully weak Wi-Fi
connections.
>> They remind me of the connections I have with my own family members.

>> It’s okay Charles.
>> You’re like a son to me.
>> [LAUGH] Does that mean I will inherit the company?
>> You’re like a son.
>> But, legally, you’re not a son.
>> Can I inherit the scanner?
>> I’ll think about it.
>> Can you remove your hand from my arm?
>> Thanks. >> You don’t feel the warmth?
>> No, I feel the warmth, that’s kind of the issue.
