There is more pork in that shoe.

I think I know where Silicon Valley’s writers got the idea: Comedy Hackday NYC 2016, How Many Rocks?. It used object recognition to return “It’s a rock” or “Not a rock”.

Sneaky sneaky!

Best episode of Silicon Valley in ages!

I was thinking that this show is really about the destruction that the main characters cause and now this episode confirms it.

It best say “hot dogs” with ketchup on them aren’t really hot dogs.
