Since 2014, a US TVShow named Silicon Valley is on air on HBO.

This TVShow focuses on six young men who found a startup in the Silicon Valley. The story is not completely sarcastic since several subjects are main topics in the history of a company.

 

So let’s have a look on what’s real in episode 101.
