Recode Decode: "Chaos Monkeys" author Antonio García-Martinez

From Decoder with Nilay Patel The Verge
Antonio García-Martinez, author of the new tell-all book, "Chaos Monkeys: Obscene Fortune and Random Failure in Silicon Valley," talks with Recode's Kara Swisher about starting a company, getting acquired by Twitter, and defecting to Facebook one year before its IPO.
