A parody of this bustling tech hub of Silicon Valley, California, the HBO series Silicon Valley, which has aired five seasons to date with a sixth coming in 2020, has captured audiences ’ attention for its hilariously exaggerated (but also somewhat realistic) interpretations of what it’s like to work in tech.
In the series, Richard Hendricks is an program developer who builds a ground-breaking data compression algorithm. He makes a move and decides to try to get his discovery off the floor, despite not knowing the first thing. He enlists the support of many developers, venture capitalists, and other powerful people while fighting off the tech giant Hooli (a clear parody of Google) that is eager to beat him to the punch.
One of his is Dinesh Chugtai, a stereotypical programmer type who’s awkward, self-involved, and dedicated to his work. Serving as the butt of Bertram Gilfoyle’s jokes, the group ’s network engineer, their relationship results in a number of the best back and forth insults on television. However, Dinesh holds his own with or without Gilfoyle, delivering both some hilarious lines that have viewers shaking our heads, laughing out loud, or, often times.

10 Why Live Like a Refugee? 
“Why would people who aren’t refugees choose to come here and live like refugees? You understand that’s not, like, a desirable thing, right? Living like a refugee? Ugh! This place is offensive to people that are homeless. ”
Having emigrated from Pakistan, Dinesh sometimes can’t understand what California folk do for pleasure, like attend the Burning Man event, roughing it. Makes sense when you think about it, what he says actually. We can&rsquo.
9 Insane Mode
“I really like my Tesla. It’s Insane Mode, which means it goes zero to 60 in 3.2 seconds, which is literally mad. However, the Tesla that Danny ordered has Ludicrous Mode, which means it goes zero to 60 in 2.8 seconds. So it’s gonna take me an entire 0.4 seconds longer to get to 60. I mean, if one of your neighbors got a tiki head bigger than 19, how would you feel? ”

Only Dinesh would drop thousands on a new Tesla after the company gets financing for the sole purpose of impressing others. But when he finds out someone got a better version, he seethes. In the grand scheme of things, is 0.4 seconds that big of a deal? According to Dinesh it’s. About being the man who everyone envies because he’s the best car, although t about having the best car Since it isn & rsquo.
8 Wanting to Be Number One
“I was the Tesla man at the office. I maxed out my credit cards in order to afford that thing. And now that we are getting series B, any one of these bourgeois new cash millennial f**** can just go out and purchase one. I really don’t wanna sound selfish, but sometimes I wish only I made money. You know? ”

Another comment relating to his Tesla, Dinesh was upset when he realized that more funding was coming. Because that meant just about anyone in the firm would have the means to go and pick up one of these vehicles that are seemingly unattainable he just dropped serious coin on. And it hurt all the more because he bought it for the ability to say he was the only one who had one.
7 He’s Got Coding Skills
“That was an experience. It was like God was coding through me. Time stood still. ”
Dinesh might spend a good deal of time trading insults with Gilfoyle on the hilarious series, but when it actually comes down to it, he’s a damn good software engineer with amazing coding skills. When he’s on a roll, he’s really in a zone. And he’s boastful that are proud, of his own work once it&rsquo.
6 Nothing To Lose
“I know all my awkward s*** is on your telephone and if you look at it, you may mock me endlessly and without mercy. However, what’s also true is that you mock without mercy and me endlessly. So I have nothing to lose and, potentially, a huge amount to gain. ”
Struggling with Gilfoyle over whatever secrets each has on his phone (one of them must plug theirs in to fix a glitch in the system), Dinesh realizes that whatever ribbing from Gilfoyle after seeing what’s on his telephone can’t be much worse than what he gets anyway. But the idea that Gilfoyle might have something to hide? That arouses Dinesh to no conclusion.
5 On Dating
“On the off chance that this is an girl that is real , getting murdered seems like an acceptable risk. ”
Dinesh isn’t exactly blessed with the ladies, so when he meets with one who’s super-cute, and seemingly interested in him and smart he figures with her can be overlooked that anything might be wrong. Ax murderer? Crazed maniac? If he gets a date and has laid, it’s worth it.
4 Awkward Conversations
“I’m the exact same manner. It being a picture doesn’t mean I’m going to enjoy it. ”

While on a date with Mia, Dinesh is expectedly awkward and uncomfortable. He doesn’t have a great deal of dates. When he asks her if she likes movies, suggesting maybe they watch one, and she replies that it depends, his reply is embarrassingly hilarious.
3 Power Went to His Head
“I had been CEO for 11 days and at that time, I violated the rights of 50,000 little girls, exposed them to sexual predators, and racked up fines the size of a small country ’s GDP. ”
When Dinesh had a short stint of electricity as CES of Pied Piper, complete with a new mindset (and hairstyle) he concentrated far too much on playing the part he let some simple yet massively important details fall through the cracks…such as ensuring the chat site included public terms of support that put an age limit on who could join. Children ’s online privacy protection rules? Pshaw. No big deal.
2 The Pakistani Denzel
“It’s me! Pakistani Denzel! Yes! ”
Clearly, Dinesh has an inflated sense of self, regardless of his awkward demeanor. While testing a Pied Piper video chat, he’s excited when it actually works, and he can see the girl helping them test from halfway across the world in amazing clarity. Naturally, it’s a pretty woman, and when he refers to himself by this title, referencing the veteran actor with the killer smile, she immediately mentions her, uh, boyfriend.
1 Closing Down
“Look at these f****** maggots. Crawling all over our garbage, leaving their slime of mediocrity. ”
After Richard makes the tough decision to fire the sales team and move back to the Hacker Hostel upon realizing the company’s state, Dinesh makes this comment as he watches the vultures buying up the office equipment. Whoever they are, they could ’t possibly e anywhere near as talented as Dinesh and his group.
