How true (in real life) is this part from the article?
In the series’ biggest twist, we discovered where the “uptick” came from—a crowded, smoky click farm in Bangladesh. The masterful sequence at the end of episode nine shows a Bangladeshi worker’s morning commute, biking his way through the crowded streets of one of the world’s poorest countries. There’s no hip music as the episode ends, just the quiet clacking of hundreds of keyboards. Is this how a bunch of coddled California techies define success?

Either life imitates art way too seamlessly or the writers are pulling from a pretty dope collection of SV war stories.
Would love an annotated version of the show that points out plot details mapping to real life shenaniganery

They are definitely pulling from a pretty dope collection of SV war stories:

Many many well know SV folk seem to consult for the show.
One of the best shows on TV, though really, I imagine everyone is watching it on HBO Go or Now.
