Is it a joke? (I'm asking in earnest, I don't know who Rob Rhinehart is, is he a comedian? Is this satire?)
Edit: AH! It is a joke. The whole site is a wonderful parody, like "The Onion" but in the form of pitch perfect clueless privileged tech weanie.

"Ideas for the Board of Coke"
> There is nothing better, than a Coke. It is the perfect product. It is so many things and all of them are wonderful. Coca-Cola is a beautiful, simple, quality, affordable, durable product that serves a real need, is available all over the world and appeals to pretty much every human alive, as well as many animals and single-celled organisms. It is liquid life.
ROFL! THis is priceless! Cheers!
- eat_veggies 6y agoHe was the CEO of Soylent and it's not satire, he's just unhinged. Soylent had to write an announcement that Rob does not speak for them anymore. https://twitter.com/soylent/status/1322588020185341952 https://twitter.com/soylent/status/1322588020185341952 https://soylent.com/blogs/news/update-from-soylent-ceo-demir-vangelov https://soylent.com/blogs/news/update-from-soylent-ceo-demir...
- carapace 6y agoI started to feel bad (for making fun of someone who might be having mental problems) but then I realized that being CEO of Soylent is consistent with my mental model of him as a brilliant performance artist/comedian. (If he breaks character now he could be liable for some lawsuits, I imagine, so we may never know.)
- bigbubba 6y agoSounds like he confused coca-cola for the other sort of coke...
