Blank: Ben Horowitz's wartime CEO analogy is flawed and inappropriate

Kalanick: Uber held secret meetings with a16z during Lyft rivalry
“There was also this other thing that would happen, so this is like, 2000, I think this really started in 2014, 15, et cetera, is Emile and I would meet up with Mark and Ben at this, Super undercover restaurant.”
