Just watched the whole thing.

God, what a sociopath.

a person with a personality disorder manifesting itself in extreme antisocial attitudes and behavior and a lack of conscience.


Her best friends in H.S. were books, doesn't blink and doesn't give a frick she's screwing over people.

There is a clip where she's asked a kind of damning question in some interview and she started blinking morse code at about 240 hertz. She basically bought into her own fabricated persona and it devoured her.

I felt like that was just more of her BS persona. Like she’s trying to give legitimacy to her rise to power; doesn’t look as impressive if you luck into something as opposed to being some sort of savant who earns their spot.

Same with the no blinking. I think she trained herself to be like that because she wanted to be seen as a little odd - like her idol Steve Jobs - which is probably a positive when you’re looking to dupe people out of millions.

It’s all a big con; people aren’t quite sure how to accurately measure people whom are perceived as a “genius.” Are you more likely to invest in some wild new tech if the inventor/founder is an average college dropout who happens to have one great idea, or some peculiar mensa-like individual who barely sleeps, has no social life, and is driven to work using their god given talent?
