Imagine that some deranged technologists notice one day that lemonade looks a lot like piss. You could almost confuse the two if you overlooked the taste, the smell, the source and the ingredients, and if you had no compunctions about drinking a lot of piss. By this point in Silicon Valley everyone has been guzzling piss for so long that most of them have forgotten they were only pretending to like the taste.
