How a box is designed in Silicon Valley. All videos were encoded using Pied Piper's lossless compression algorithm, and were verified to have a Weissman score of 5.2. From HBO's Silicon Valley
This brings back memories of me *designing a box* for three years at a EV charging station company. Our CEO was a little out of his depth so every time we'd go through the whole cycle of design requirement capture, PDR (primary design review), CDR (critical) and FDR (final), as soon as we hit a big issue (e.g. difficult to install for electricians, difficult to cool electronics inside, easy to steal, not waterproof to IP 67 ect), instead of focusing on solving it he'd come up with a new sketch and ask us to start again from scratch, go through the entire cycle again. we've probably built 20 different versions in 3 years. I didn't mind at first cus it was almost free money but after a while even we were getting sick of it so the whole design team left one by one
Jean: “The signature displayed troubling traits…characterized by… an inability to accept bad news.” Gavin: “Get this horrible woman the fuck out of my office NOW.” 4:37
I remember reading a post the outlines how realistic the designers method was and why it's used. In short, anyone can just rip off someone else's design and change things. And it's very hard to define a vibe or direction you want for a product's look. So you need to give the designer a selection of ideas and images so they can make something that reflects that
So behind the scenes of the show - did they also have several designers, creative managers and focus groups to present and pitch all of the designs and signatures seen here?
OMG that was funny.....".in a sub basement in a data center where no one can see it but a sad man named john a guy with a pony tail." I think i know that guy
Ya know, never thought of this before, but - I think I should sign my signature from now on. In fact, I think I should sign my signature with Banksy's signature! And, also make it so that anything signed that way will spontaneously destroy itself if it is ever sold at auction!
I love that the show was fair to both sides. That design branding people can be ridiculous. But also the baine of design people's existence, having no one give enough input, but then criticize and have opinions come out after the fact.

This whole series is a masterpiece.
its by far the best that ever happened to tv
i watched the show 5 times already
I just realized how they threw Jean, the girl reading the report from the handwriting expert, so hard under the bus lmao
I always thought she was the handwriting expert until I realised later that she was just reading the report 😂

They threw that handwriting chick under the bus so badly. A perfect approximation of corporate America.
"This is all kind of a joke to you"
*pushes way too hard on the chair, not realizing how good the casters roll in the boardroom*
