    I'm here thanks to the way Parker & Paul Graham went 'all in' on David Sacks on Twitter!

    i don’t know much about him but 10-15 years ago a friend who used to work at yammer told me integrity is not something he has in him.

    Have watched this and the All In Podcast: Parker was in the wrong.
    - Press releases do get changed, and are always re-written once they get sent to media publishers anyway.
    - For a previous CEO to effectively say, "it wasn't just me", is weak.
    - If you're a leader and you're involved, you always need to take the hit - that's business.
    - The media could have just read the SEC documents and come to a similar conclusion.
    TLDR: I think Parker is a great founder, and Rippling is phenomenal. But think he'd be better off making peace with himself on this issue.

    Seems like the story of every CEO that gets replaced. "im not sure why they replaced me, I thought we were all on the same team, I was blindsided"... Need to know more information before making a judgement.

    I’m not really seeing where Sacks went wrong here… there’s a reason Parker Conrad was the only one who had to pay the SEC $533,000.

      I honestly can’t listen to him. He makes some good points! But going off the deep end with Ukraine / Russia has made him exceedingly grating

      @@akashgarg9776 Sacks is usually dispassionate about these things. he has his brand of humour but generally just takes an intellectual point of view. something to do with having strong views but loosely held..up until All In, i didn't know much about him. i've found it's usually a terrible idea to 'hero worship' or hold public figures to an exceedingly impossible standard. they are just people figuring it out as they go.. & to that end I think Sacks is pretty funny & smart..😅 anyway, it's my humble opinion..you might think something completely different. all the best✌

      not many people confess their love for sacks online, usually reserved for fetish forums with other teabagging enthusiasts

      Sachs and Chamath are terrible humans. Chamath promoted his pathetic spacs and sold them burning millions of investors. Detest listening to that pretentious all in one podcast, true muck

    Dude. You were fined by the sec. Seems like you were the problem. Complaining about a changed press release is weak. Move on and stop whining
