Reception

Dalton Ross of Entertainment Weekly gave the series premiere a grade of D+, stating that the "Darren Star created drama plays like a bad Melrose Place episode with obligatory IPO terminology thrown in".[2] Howard Rosenberg of Los Angeles Times was lukewarm on the show, calling it "passable but hardly a highlight".[3]

gollark: Negligible runtime cost is what people mean by zero cost abstraction mostly.
gollark: I assumed you were mostly complaining about traits taking time for humans to get used to, but sure.
gollark: Oh bees the compile time.
gollark: Also longer compile time.
gollark: Although I suppose you have larger binaries and mildly worse CPU cache use with that.
