Imagine you employ me as a hotel manager, and I come to you and say: "sure I spent all our food budget internationally in three months, but we invented this new dish and now our restaurant is the hottest in town. Sure 95% of the food was wasted but now we can stop the waste and keep the popular dish."

Ok, but was that your intention in the first place? or was it to have food fights.

Thats the problem here. The idea is that we can build more stuff, quickly.

However in uber's case, they just burnt loads of money to push a metric that wasn't really related to productivity.

The intention was to force everyone to experiment with the new ingredient monsanto recently GMO'd. Of course a lot of our employees suck, so food fights were expected, but luckily some of the employees created something great.
