Episode 5
This is a follows up on why it might not have been a good idea to make Erlich a board member. He already had an ego but now he has an ego with leverage. This is shown by his unapproved venture to create a barely guided logo, costing five percent of the investment in company that doesn't have a working product. *TBD Quote*.
Richard for me has now broken the fourth wall, how someone with this level of opportunity can just be so apathetic. Though the arch of the episode shows him finally embracing a corporate culture, he just seems to be moping around. The most interesting result in all of this is the fact with a simple public board the two coders stay working at a level not seen prior in the series. *TBD Quote*
*Lao Tzo quote "best leader = not being known"*, Jared perfectly embodies this in this episode. His efforts to create a functioning work environment are contested at every turn, but showing great passion and drive he fights for it. Like a good leader he shows his ideas, takes the views of others and alters his methods until he finds something that works. The best part was the fact that the two coders are fully aware of what was happening at the base, but the simple pettiness of who is best trumped all making them both stay locked on their computers all thanks to Jared.
