Jared is a saint edition.
>>71028637
There is a new episode tonight, right? I'm surprised there wasn't already a thread up.
>>71028637
Poos save the day once again.
>>71028637
he fucks
THAT
FUCKING
ENDING
>>71028721
One of the best episodes ever, actually.
>>71028637
I watched 5 episodes and I'm hooked, but I'm a poorfag. Is there somewhere I can watch it online?
Amanda crews feet made this the best episode ever
So, when does Halt and Catch Fire start?
>>71028923
They looked good there but the pics on footwiki are terrible. Like 2/10 feet
>>71028637
I liked Pipey.
>>71028923
Why did I know /tv/ would be all about this the moment she took her shoes off?
Dorothy Mantooth is a saint. Jared fucks.
Back in the day, you could actually sell a product exclusively to tech dorks and make enough money to stay in business for years.
But that was before venture capital and their need for growth, constant growth, at unstoppable, cancerous rates.
I want to climb her like a god damn tree
>>71029217

>>71029497
She looks so much like Ana Kasparian
who /veep/ here
this season has gotten better every week
>>71029609
They need to make a Jonah spinoff
>>71029646
Jonah the senator, Richard his assistant and Dan chief of staff show would be great
>>71029609
The Christmas dance episode was fucking brutal.
I know they are having trouble with the UI/UX, and people don't really understand wtf PP does, but I wonder, since it is a P2P platform, whether just having an extra 10k users might not be enough to spark the "unexpected" results that somehow make it useful to nontechnical people. Even though those 10k users in India are just dicking around, they might help the platform push pass a threshold that even Richard isn't aware of. No, not Skynet, but something unexpected. And, of course, Bighead will manage to profit by it, to everyone's surprise, except, of course he will.
>>71029806
The platform predictions based on the files people upload. The clickfarmers aren't uploading any files, they're just logging in and out.
>>71030068
makes predictions
>>71030068
But does logging in and out count as "daily users?" Seems like they would have to add some amount of data to qualify, if only sky shots from their phones. I know we didn't see any of that going on.
I don't even get why they're trying to market this to normies. Shouldn't they go after companies that use a shit ton of data storage?
>>71029497
post the clip of her getting blacked
Holy shit, Monica's ass and feet at the party scene completely made this episode.
Anybody have pics of her ass from the episode?
>>71030641
Jack already tried that and Richard spat in his face.
Now Hooli is gonna make bank with the box.
>>71030641
That's pretty much what the box was, but Richard is retarded.
>>71030641
Richard wants to create a facebook tier program.
Man what a surreal episode. Really good 9/10
Skipped all the comments because spoilers. Is it up on the internet yet? I'm desperate to find out what's up with everything and discuss.
>>71031231
Yeah it's up on Jared hires a bunch of Indians to make fake Pied Piper accounts.
>>71028637
WE ARE ALL TABLES
>>71031319
I wonder if it will catch on with the pajeets and be a big thing over there.
>>71029497
>tfw 6'5"

>>71030641
Nobody in tech has any business sense.
Back in the '70s and '80s DEC was well-known for making the best computers on the planet and having the worst marketing sense on the planet. That's part of why they aren't around anymore.
>>71029423
>Back in the day, you could actually sell a product exclusively to tech dorks and make enough money to stay in business for years.
Good times, when they made software and hardware that you could actually do shit with instead of these fucking toys we carry around with us today that you can't even replace the battery on.
>>71029806
wtf? I thought PP is just a winzip for videos. why do you talk about P2p?
wait PP is just cloud for videos. it is even shittier than expected.
There's nothing stopping businesses from using PP. If you're a business that uses heavy data and you don't jump on PP then it's your own damn fault.
Who was black qt next to stupid guy in focus group?
>>71030641
Thats the plan.
Get the free version out to all the regular people, and sell the business version at a premium
>>71031606
>I do not know your feel, but I've fucked a few 6'+ chicks and it's awesome.
sure my goy, spend your time and energy earning money then spend your time, energy and money to be noticed by a few girls so that they let you try to make them cum, like they let dozens of boys beforehand and they will let dozens afterwards.

I thought they got seven thousand users because that black woman made a tutorial, and the episode ends with them hiring her.
So the season finale is that the clickfarm plan backfires on him and everyone hates him now?
>everyone but gilfoyle removes their shoes
>Erlich giving boss lady the "i'm gonna fuck you" look
fucking normies REEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>71033628
Richard is becoming the villain.
>What is Hooli if not the best possible future version of Pied Piper? You think you're building something different? No.
>You're building something that's exactly the same as what I've already built, except with you instead of me, but that's not possible now, Richard.
>>71028637
They should just sell to businesses and compress databases and CDN stuff
Christ, that ending.
This was one of the best episodes they have ever done.
Is it me or does Monica have a nice ass?
Her face is kinda busted but she has some junk in the trunk worth a look.
I don't fucking understand why no one offered UI/UX improvements? I mean if people don't understand, than you just rethink and redesign your UI. Yeah, Richard is too autistic for this shit, but Gilfoyle, Monica? The ending was too good though.
>>71034821
yes
Monica's faces were a bit...creepy
No speculation on what he does next episode?
Maybe it is selling user info, but that can't bring in much money.
>>71031657
There was the Austin tech something consortium that was pioneering a lot of AI and micro electronics technologies. But VC got into tech and killed innovation.

How the fuck does Monica get more attractive every single episode?
>>71035051
kek, beat you to it.
Jared is getting fired next week
>>71035094
Do you really think they'd do that? And when's Bighead coming back?
>>71035051
Does Richard go full Mark Zuckerberg?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6U16XShROI8
>>71035094
i think this might happen too
too bad because he's the best character
Richard deserves the suffering derived from his own ineptitude. Fucking aesthetically oblivious robot.
>>71034912
They are fucked. Richard is retarded and doesn't know anything about making money
>>71034893
Its not the ux, it is just too complex of a concept to teach quickly.
>>71035208
That's it. Pied Piper becomes facebook. Richard sells all the information to third parties and starts spying on people.
>>71035344
That was my first thought, but everyone already does it.
>>71035295
>Richard is retarded and doesn't know anything about making money
That's the point. That's why he needs Erlich and Jared.
>>71035344
More like, his company becomes more powerful than Google and Facebook combined and the last season is him trying to destroy the monster he created and he instead spends the rest of his life coding his own little projects with Jared and Erlich at the helm, never becoming a huge success but just helping humanity in small but useful ways.
>>71034821
I just came to Monica's ass
>>71035208
jesus fucking christ
>>71035208
God damn do I love this show
>>71035412
Yeah, but they cannot help him on that
So your files are split into pieces between everyone else's machines and when you access them you just access them from a bunch of other users. It uses machine learning (the program figures out the fastest and most efficient way to do this on the fly) to make it fast.
Why was this so hard to teach people and why do they actually need to know this?
LIKE TERMINATOR
>>71035798
Next episode is them hiring bernice for PR and explaining how a simpleton can use it.
how does lori become sexier every episode? those legs and feet
>>71035798
But my phone says there's no memory used??
>It can't be made more simple
Nice plot device.
>>71034821
eh, it's mostly since we've been in a monica drought
not that it is too bad
>>71035208
hahahaha that's fucking awesome
>>71035798
You're leaving out the neural net and compression. The plane needs wings!
>>71035854
>Next episode is them hiring bernice for PR
She will be their community manager person on their support forum.
>>71035859
she's kinda hot
>>71036009
busted face, great body
pretty good episode I thought, the click farming 'twist' felt obvious though
>>71036009
she loves to tease since she is one good whore
>>71036126
I had a strange thought that it became big in an ironic way with people mocking Pipey on social media or something.
>>71036126
Yea but Jared sold it pretty well. Don't want him to lose his faith in the company ;_;
Why is there no download button?
>>71036126
obvious because they gave it away before?
probably. but the credits over the indians making accounts got to me. like that joke that goes too long that goes from good to bad, back to good.
>>71030922
>>71030958
>>71030965
But with the platform he gets to use the neural net to optimize the compression even further
Richard is retarded for mentioning the NN to his customers, and you're retarded for not paying attention to his explanation
>>71036143
Fuck me I want that face full of thick, viscostic cum

>dinesh trying to hit on women using pied piper association only to constantly fail

>>71035798
It's funny because neural nets were never mentioned in earlier expository sequences, nor are they necessary for effective compression algorithms. At the end of the day it shouldn't matter how technically sophisticated the algorithm is; a simple UI is all that's required to give people access to their data. It's more about characterizing the platform as something vaguely more technical than practical to the ordinary consumer, and thus "ahead of its time" in that sense. Suspension of disbelief.
>>71036143
holy fuck i would destroy her
t. chad
>>71035798
My graphic designer gf pointed out that the program was probably missing important visual cues that confused non-power users (like their phone reading the file as 0 kb) and the interface being terrible because a bunch of engineers with no designers created it.
>>71036293
Busted roastie for him.. Maybe
>>71036293
Probably not, I can see it becoming a Fry/Leela thing where he only gets some near the end of the entire series and even still it will be some low tier woman.
>>71036339
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
GET OUT
>>71036293
I hope not. Pakis are all pedos and he would only victimize underage girls.
>>71036293
Hopefully not, pakis are like mudslime poo in loos, the fewer the better.
>>71036324
So why would anyone use it over dropbox? You just described dropbox.

>>71036009
>suzanne cryer dating history
lmao
This entire season I was wondering why the fuck they didn't sell the box once it was finished AND work on the platform. After Gavin set the price point they definitely would have been able to convince that company not to go with an exclusivity deal.
The box was fucking done and it was a great product. They just didn't sell it so Hooli could this episode. I love this show but that's just some shit writing right there.
>>71032131
the footage at the end definitely doesn't look like thailand to me
>>71036009
>She was the "yadda yadda" girl from Seinfeld
I thought I knew her face from somewhere.
>>71037003
All they had was a prototype, and they didnt have the manpower to do both. Remember, they were the only ones who could work on the box? Plus, that was gavin's whole play, so he would undercut them.
>>71035030
SONG NAME
veep is a much better show and gets no action around here. is it because of le im a nerd meme?
>>71037506
veep is cringy
>>71037550
no it's not
>>71037506
There are like 10 political shows and like 3 tech shows. Also, west wing is better.
>>71037506
veep lost me halfway through this season.
i guess i'll pick it up at the end of the season, but eh not as into it as SV
>>71037506
both are good why dont u make a veep thread famalama
>>71037628
HoC is GOAT
I feel like this show needs more gilfoyle + dinesh air time instead of constantly forcing jared +richard down our throats
>>71037919
I'm liking the Gilfoyle+Jared this episode. The edgy satanist got btfo by the reincarnation of Hitler.
>>71037003
It's not shit writing, you fucking moron. They didn't want to do that. Try paying attention to this show. Stop bitching about it like it was game of thrones.
>>71038067
I think Gilfoyle knew he was lying.
>>71037919
Jared is the best character though.
>>71038142
Gilfoyle has an emotionless voice so its hard to tell, but I think they would have given some indication. You could be right, they did establish he was good at it before.
the whole episode had like 1 joke
>>71038314
He was right every time. Of course he could tell.
>>71037003
I'm still unclear on what the box actually does.
Is it literally just a harddrive that compresses files so small it can hold infinite things? Not literally infinite, just in practicality.
I thought the season started slow and contrived but it has developed so nicely
>>71038423
but my phone says (j)0K(es)
>>71031724
do you actually watch the show or do you just shitpost on here?
>>71038441
he could tell every time, but technically the "numbers" were correct, so jared didn't have to lie
>>71038441
You're probably right but I like thinking OJ can be clutch when it counts. Also Gilfoyle was pretty douchey this episode.
When the female board member said to Gavin he better not bring an animal to the meeting, I thought Gavin was about to stop the nigger from coming in the room
>>71031817
fucking retard
>>71038454
You know how there were a shitton of boxes? Lots of those would be hdds (sans and nases), the data would go through the box, get compressed, and be saved on those. Servers can be bought with software preinstalled to do one thing, they are called appliances.
holy fuck that click sweatshop looked fucking brutal, shirtless taskmasters and all
>>71039144
at least they get to smoke
>>71036237
I just meant as soon as the guy leaving mentioned clickfarming I was like "oh, that's what they'll do" and usually when I think like that about this show, they do something interesting to invert your expectations but not this time
the end credits were very good
So Pied Piper is basically Ethereum right? Similar concept anyway.
>>71035308
kek. this is what autists actually think
>other people are just too dumb to understand how brilliant it is
the users really don't have to understand anything other than, "files are really small". The way it works is not relevant at all to using it.
dat ass
>>71039144
Is there really no more efficient way to do what they were doing? Some aspects of my job are sort of similar to that situation, it seems like someone could write a script to automate a lot of that work with relative ease.
>>71037506
The Thick Of It is the better Ianucci show
>>71039574
The programming of account-making services is now advanced enough that it can detect and delete a script making spoof accounts. So you have to have people manually making them.
They need a basic UI for normals which is the default with an expert level (what they have).
>>71039837
exactly
that thing about uploading a video or whatever and it required seven steps, there should just be a default and then advanced options
>>71028637
So whats the brutal CEO move in next week gonna be?
Richard suing Hooli over the box? Pretty sure Jack just broke the non-compete clause.
>>71039883
the idea that a single product rolled over a few days with a single contract with a single client could ever make up for the clusterfuck Gavin put Hooli through to the tune of 3/4 of a billion is insane. Why would the writers come up with such inflated numbers just to give the antagonist such a weak and easy way to reverse the odds?
>>71039883
I'm sure the nigger that quit also breached some form of standard NDA by revealing sensitive information to Gavin
>>71039475
But the files arent even files as the user understands it. They had trouble manipulating the files in ways they were used to. Also, they'd be pissed the first time they tried to open a file and realized they cant because the internet is down. Also, its a tv show.
I'm glad they showed the ending shot. That's neoliberalism right there. All the dogs body work making your shoes, your watch, your umbrella is done by people like that being paid a pittance.
>>71040037
what I don't get is how in today's world a company can't sell a fucking videogame without people shitting a brick if it's always online but they would expect people to use up their data plans 24/7 for all their multimedia files without resistance
>>71039475
Plus, with apps, people just uninstall if they dont like it right away.
>>71040115
>That's neoliberalism right there
neoliberalism is a less than useless, made up moniker. I'm sure faroosh over there would be wealthier without a job at all, right?
Consider the elephant
At first I was like 19k daily users its probably that small because who the fuck wants to bother with compressing files everyday. I mean I dont think I have that need?
>>71040268
if it also includes any time someone accesses their files then it is small
>>71040249
>you can't bring another animal inside
>made them go outside
Madman, I tell you.
>>71040139
Im guessing the selling point is that it would use much less data, and a big part of it is sharing files between users, so it would be replacing normal youtube videos and facebook posts. Also, if Pied Piper was actually a good idea someone would be making it since the idea is out there. Its a show so it just needs to sound plausible.
>not free software
glad it's ded
>>71040268
It's not just compressing files. It can store your photos and videos on your phone or computer without taking up any space, because they exist in a cloud-like network.
>>71040268
I agree, it's much more valuable to businesses. But still, space is space. The average person would be able to load up their phones with as many pictures and videos as they want to. That's not really the case today.
It apparently has desktop usage as well, which for me would definitely be useful. I'd be able to fit a lot more movies (and games? I don't know) on my 1 TB hard drive.
Who /tables/ here?
>>71036371
>Leela
>low tier woman
DELETE THIS
>>71040356
it is actually a good idea, it's just that it's not (currently?) possible to compress files that ridiculously much. I mean, in terms of worst case performance, every compression algorithm has certain files that cannot be compressed by even a bit
>>71040467
When and if the technology does exist for a real-life Pied Piper, you could have entire movie libraries in 4k on your phone or computer with barely and storage being used for it.
>>71040249
I was hoping the elephant would go into rampage and everyone just scowling at gavin.
>>71028637
Why didn't Pied Piper just sell their box while developing the platform? They had already built it.
>>71040467
Yeah to my understanding, you need online access, but you would need to download barely anything to have full access to your files. If you have the connection to stream Netflix or something then you're already miles ahead of the connection you need to download your movies through Pied Piper.
>>71040467
Do they use middle out? Checkmate
man, I thought the whole point of this episode was going to be the turnaround when they hire that one black woman to market for them
I mean they've essentially made her into a Checkov's gun, showing her twice and mentioning her by name later
>>71040467
The compression algorithm is obv useful, but the platform seems like an overcomplicated version of cloud storage. The p2p aspect is neat, but adds in a ton more problems, like having a shitton of redundand copies. If all copies of N shards are destroyed, the file is gone.
>>71040738
no, you clearly don't understand. Lemme try in simpler terms. What did you have for breakfast this morning. Great. And what do we all know is in a midget's feces? Electrons.
>>71028637
Is it me or are they all autistic or heavily assburgered? I don't know, but if I worked with these guys I'd shave a little rat poison in their drinks and food, just a little.
>>71040812
Why didnt you switch to apehoop after game of normmies finished. Thats pretty much the point of the show.
>>71040802
But what about midget terminators?
>>71040812
That's the joke, normalshit
>>71033628
I thought of this too..
>>71040880
There's nothing funny about socially awkward asspies in tech if you've been around them long enough. The only fun part is you can set them off easily if you know what irks them and they deserve.
How those TBBT reruns going?
>>71041039
Pardon me, but if you've been working in tech for a while and are exposed to these types throughout the years, I doubt you want to sit and watch a show about them. It's like being a corrections officer in a fucked up prison full of massive degenerates then watching Oz when you kick back in your lazee boy, no thanks, I'll pass, but whatever floats your boats.
>>71038221
This. Jared is truly the patrician's choice.
>>71040360
This tbqh. libmiddleout when?
>>71040577
Because Malaent agreed to buy the PP boxes for 3 times the asking price, but in that agreement they demanded to exclusice rights to Richard's algorithm, and the platform the squad wanted to create needed that exact algorithm. When they said they would reword the contract and take it back to Malaent (Laurie really wanted the platform made), Jack mentioned that Malaent asked for that specific demand in order for there to be a deal.
>>71035208
Jesus Christ
I feel so dumb now knowing there's a stunning amount of gags I didn't get
>>71028637
Goddamn Monica looked fine as fuck this episode.
>>71042376
that was pretty arbitrary, Malaent wouldn't have any use for the algorithm and no CEO would give them rights over their IP over a single contract.
The show jumped the shark when Erlich sold his 10% of a company potentially worth hundreds of millions for 700k, he could have sold his house or got a loan or whatever to pay that and not lose his shares, such a retarded move.
>>71035208
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME??
I would have never thought that it was anything but satire because the whole clusterfuck is so disjointed and dumb, how fucking arrogant are these fucks in the tech industry to shit out garbage like this for real?
>>71043286
it's kind of a throwaway since he stays at the company and allows the writers to involve him more in the plot. Not great writing but not exactly shit either
did anyone else burst out laughing at the scrambled eggs part. holy shit.
>>71037003
they didn't sell it because the company the were selling to would have exclusive rights to pied piper technology which went against Richard's goal which was making the world a better place with compression tech.
