Similar story. My company https://t.co/E0nVasQNNz was one of the handful of cos that could go public in the end of the dotcom IPO window bc we had $170m in bookings. Accel went on a jihad to replace me as CEO bc i was 32 and had never run a public co. They literally couldnt find a single reason other than my lack of age and experience and i had the junior partner who needed to prove he had the mojo to change out one of ‘his’ ceo’s. I regret that i eventually caved since it led to such a lower $$ outcome with the grey haired HP ceo who had no ability to navigate the multiple reinventions neede…

Their words
it was actually being damaged by overly prescriptive humans. And any programmer who's had a pointy-haired boss knows exactly what that is like. When the boss walks into the room, doesn't know anything, starts telling you how to program, how to code. What do you do? You sulk. You write shittier code if you're mandated to do things that are against your better judgment. Why would an agent not be the same?

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at korrents.com.
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said. The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.
About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
