Silicon Valley Part 2: Move Fast and Break Things

If Move Fast and Break Things is the official motto of Silicon Valley then Ryan has certainly come to the right place. Meanwhile, Rock's hopes of a million dollar United payday are dashed when instead of being dragged off the plane Ryan gets not one but two swag kits. Perhaps there's a Regional Premier Upgrade that will actually clear hidden behind the gummy bears?



Hey VCs, how would you like to get in early on the Series A round for my DinoSoar start up? You can rest assured your investment will be judiciously deployed: a bottomless keg, curated kale salads, extra nerf ammo, team-building capture the flag excursions, some blatant brogrammism.



Daddy can I come up? The boardroom has stroller parking right?


Wise man, get in quick before Dad eats it all.


A robot coding tech lab! This is where you start your career in self-driving cars son. Just remember, if you're modeling your algo off Daddy's driving, that parking garage pillar was a bug not a feature. 


Speaking of robots, here's one that makes a flat whites. Because nothing says I'm Changing the World like making sure you never have to say g'day to a human barista again.


You ate all your yogurt? Good boy, have a gold star!



Daddy I heard on the Google campus they have free trikes? 


Half Moon Bay is only half an hour out of San Francisco but it seems a world away from those brogrammers and their man buns.



Bit nippy on the beach Dad, are we in Big Bay?


Are you sure it was a sparrow Dad? I could have sworn it was a Great Western Red-Crested Frigate Bird.



What do you reckon son, looks like the perfect spot for a garage to me?


Monterey Bay Aquarium takes aquariums to a whole new level, literally in the case of the soaring three story kelp forest.



These do not pair with peanut butter son.


Yeah, you could have saved Mommy a lot of trouble by hatching instead.



They say the only way to learn is to roll up your sleeves.


Even aquariums have gone hipster: nothing attracts the Millennials like housing your aquarium in a reclaimed sardine cannery.



Look at this nifty water feature. Big Bay definitely needs one to stay competitive in the cutthroat global market for beachfront real estate.



Dad if we pull out of the Paris Accord do you think it will be warm enough to swim? 


Big Bay is already taken, let's call it Yuge Bay.




Dad I promise I'll never complain about the car seat again.



They don't grow trees like this out east son. They have to be really big out here because there's so many folks trying to hug them.
