> Few years ago I did not join Theranos after looking at their board.

Based on your track record, I fully expect an update to come out where it turns out this Khosla guy's 89 acre property doesn't actually exist, it was actually 8.9 acres magnified with an extremely elaborate mechanism of smoke and mirrors.

option says>"I did not join Theranos after looking at their board."

I had to look up Theranos to understand this. I somehow feel dirty.

Sometimes this can keep you away from turkeys like Thereanos, too. Petty jerkitude is a contrarian indicator.

I remember driving by Solyndra being impressed by their building/mission and wanting to work there.

My brother applied for jobs at Theranos several times--he was in the biomedical engineering area--but somehow it never worked out (once they apparently lost his application, another time they cancelled an interview at the last minute, etc.).

Dodged a bullet there.

"Biomedical engineer? He's gonna figure us out. Quick, cancel his interview!"
