After reading some of these stories, I don't see how you can't come away thinking that psychopathy is a trait that goes hand in hand with being a successful VC. The story about Vinod Khosla speaks for itself, but after reading #2 I clicked on Marc Andreesen's twitter profile, which currently says this:
> You’re not talking to someone who woke up a loser. That loser attitude, that loser premise makes no sense to me.
These fuckers are grotesque caricatures in human skin.
If you're not aware that's actually a quote from Jensen Huang.
This quote is from a viral interview between Jensen Huang and Dwarkesh Patel, the latter made some points during the interview that were very condescending and betrayed a deep misunderstanding of technology.
