I know this is the sad reality at most companies but when I put someone on a PIP I 100% expect them to improve and recover from whatever got them in the PIP.
Guarantee you there’s a non zero chance you are the reason for their pip.
I’ve been a cpo, a cdo, a head of design, a design mgr and an individual contributor. The sad reality is that rarely has a pip corrected anything and mostly it is used to push out individuals… individuals that often contribute great things.
You work with people you want to succeed… others throw them to the wolves and it’s called a pip.
I’d love to hear the situation that describes otherwise?
Yeah sounds like you are in the meme. Dont project onto me lol.
One day old account that other one. Lots of negative takes in that time. Trolls be trolling.
Possibly spoken like a true product manager? Reality is we are likely both in the meme because we are both acting rational in a world that has lost its mind.
Curious your job title?
I told you to stop projecting on me ya creep. I’m grounded idk wtf you are talking about.
Don’t feed the trolls
Curious your job title…
Curious your diagnosis…
Jesus christ…
Your job title: Terminally Online
What is wrong with the bottom of her face? I didn’t know, I can’t put my finger on it. Like it’s out of proportion. Someone fucked with her character creation sliders too much and said “fuck it, ship it! We’ll fix it in post.”
You are an organic meme, not an advertisment being pushed by some big marketing firm to virally promote an upcoming movie, right?
Why would I deceive you?
Doesn’t really work to advertise a film if I don’t know what it is and it doesn’t give me any desire to see it
Cant wait to see this. She’s terrifying and Fielder is imho the perfect foil to interview her.
Its weird cuz she just ripped off a bunch of rich people, I dont really have any reason to hate her really but she’s sort of emblematic of what is problematic of startup and tech culture and in a sense identify culture where being the first ___ founder/CEO or one of few ____ founders/CEOs/whatever is part of the pitch.
In a better world it would never have entered the equation much less overshadowed the actual lack of viable product/IP. How did no blood scientist/dr/expert not easily point out their premise was fatally flawed in a way that doomed the whole exercise, both internally and publicly?
There were some after the fact and it was exposed who were casually like "ya, the blood available from a pinprick to the finger doesnt suffice for the grand vision Theranos was sold as and predicated upon
How did no blood scientist/dr/expert not easily point out their premise was fatally flawed?
They did. Every expert out there pointed out it’s impossible.
I remember one former employee posted on reddit without naming the company, saying everything they were claiming was bs. A little later the scandal blew up and it was confirmed the guy worked for Theranos.
she just ripped off a bunch of rich people
Her company was sinking its teeth into the medical field though. That could’ve killed people if they weren’t found out soon enough.
How was it gonna get FDA-approved tho? Im sure its happened before in the past but i wonder what the plan was for that
Under Trump’s FDA, she could just make a “donation” and it would be approved. Don’t kid yourself that these institutions are— or ever were —sacrosanct.
I’m not sure what they were doing needed FDA approval since it was a blood test and not something that actually goes into or touches a patient. Though I’m not expert on medical regulations so thats just a guess.
Thats why I make it a habit of leaving blood wherever I go, no regulations.
Its just safer that way. Sow your Seed
They likely did kill people who were using it and would otherwise have consulted with a doctor.
They were using an actual proper machine made by a competitor i thought? Like wasnt their flagship Edison thingy just a competing actually developed medical device?
I mean they’re killing enough people on their own
The most depressing thing about this entire ordeal is that the woman stole lots of money, got busted because that money belonged to rich people, and is now after having been convicted and literally been to prison as far as i know, able to cash in on that further. Lets make a movie about that wonderful successful scammer.
I think there’s a law in the states that criminals can’t profit from the story of their crime. If I remember correctly, the money that would have gone to the criminal goes to restitution for the victims.
Assuming that is indeed the case, she still benefits considerably: she gets to stay relevant, develop celebrity, change or affect the public opinion on her. A normal criminal cant even get a job cleaning toilets sometimes.
Her company faked lab results. People were falsely led to believe they had HIV or cancer.

Here I was having a nice “non-life altering” morning and you had to go and post a thing like this.
Why’d you have to go and say a thing like that? Here I was, living my life with NO attraction to Elizabeth Holmes…
John Oliver would also self-admittedly fit in a movie featuring anthropomorphic mice. Just maybe not as well for Gadget, specifically.
Well shit, now I can’t unsee it. How dare you!
I totally see it, and I am totally here for it.
Cannot unsee it
I’d watch it
Why is this so common, anyway? Why do so many images like this even exist?
It’s probably because of communism.
I would imagine in many cases for images uploaded to an image host, the host is automatically changing the actual format of the image (this happens to me on some sites tho it is pretty rare in 2026). Or it was saved by someone who took a screenshot of the image instead of saving the actual image.
Why do PNG images with alpha transparencies exists?
Because when put on a background gif transparencies look dithered since gif transparencies are either on or off. There are no 50% or any other partial opacities.
If you are using gifs for like moving pixel art, that’s great but if a designer wants a realistic still images with moving clouds in the background, PNG would be a way better option.
They mean ‘fake’ transparent pngs.
Crap…
That makes sense.
Thank you for clearing that up for me.
They want you to pay to remove it
Yeah, it’s just the thumbnail or whatever for the real image that truly has transparency. If anything, you should be angry at the search engine for even displaying this as a result when you select that you’re querying for images with transparency.
.webp coming for you
Can someone tell me why I’m seeing this woman around everywhere?
A trailer dropped for some up coming movie with this chick in it and everyone’s been memeing the hell out of it.
Here’s a link to the KnowYourMeme page and the trailer is in there if you want to see where it’s coming from. I’m not directly linking it cause I’m not advertising for them.
new documentary coming out soon, called You Can See Everything
Me too kid. Me too
Um, ackchually, PNG does not mean that it has an alpha channel. Even JPEG can have alpha channel (though its not standard feature and might break compatibility with some readers), but also AVIF and WebM.
