It's fascinating to me the extent to which executives don't consider themselves "public figures" when it comes to potential downsides, but they do in terms of upsides.

It feels so obvious to me that the CEO of such a high-profile org should at the very least quickly check public-facing social media posts against someone sensible, if not laundering them all through the experts at their org. But somehow they keep making these mistakes over and over again.

It's the new spin on "I want the President to be someone I can have a beer with."

Quoting 2Pac lyrics is just comical. Even more out of touch than Ben Horowitz (of Andreessen Horowitz) starting every chapter of his ultra-corporate startup book with Jay-Z lyrics.

Ben is a long-time (life long?) rap lyric afficionado and in that respect actually quite "in-touch".

what exactly is a "rap lyric aficionado"? He's about as in-touch as an Ivy-league academic studying poverty is with living in rural Appalachia.
