If Miranda Priestly were Michael Priestly, there would be no movie, the first movie. Everything she does is sort of slightly horrible, but would be kind of adorable if a man said it. But there's a special tinge of mercury around that kind of remark from a woman. It just hurts more.
For the last several years, we've basically gently ceded market share to the other players in the industry. And I came in and said, that's a no-go. That is unacceptable. We're going to win in the marketplace.

Sam Altman, against the backdrop of Silicon Valley hype culture and startups that balloon to massive valuations based on promises that may or may not come to pass in the future, and an increasing embrace of a founder culture that thinks telling different groups different conflicting things is a feature, not a bug…Even against that backdrop, Sam Altman is an extraordinary case where everyone in Silicon Valley who expects those things can't stop talking about this question of his trustworthiness and his honesty.
When people have to pitch a story, not a fifty page business case, and justify why their ideas deserve another few million dollars, they suddenly start thinking like founders instead of managers.

I think we all to some degree feel this way as we go through life, like unprepared, unqualified, and reluctant yet important things are relying on me. So, I have to come through.
Jones wasn't necessarily explicitly telling us to lie. I think if he was doing that, he wouldn't have as many people working for him because there was this pretend idea that we were searching for the truth.
