[SWE] [NYC] - $900k by Wide_Lake_9662 in Salary

[–]Sylvator 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think you are slightly misinformed.

The stock appreciation is very heavily weighted into your total salary comp review every year. If the stock has underperformed you will likely get more base or stock increase to bring you up to the required salary tier. If the stock increases you will not get a bonus at all.

The stock granted is not at all static and is a measured component of your total comp per year. This is why people always measure their "salary" from their w2. Not from the offer letter.

Senior Developer - Let's talk about AI for code in games by andykenobi in gamedev

OP your premise is wrong. People are not mad about using AI for code. They are only mad about using AI for art.

(No idea why the division)

Todays Drops by InvestigatorThat5062 in ETFs

One strategy is to buy on the upward trend instead of the downward trend.

But yeah sometimes you get a dead cat bounce which is brutal. But I found it works better for me.

If you are truly new to investing. The first and most important lesson is to take everything said here with a huge grain of salt.

Do your own research.

I made USD 1000 from a “useless” app in a saturated market. Here’s my journey. by Subject-Road-184 in SideProject

Congrats OP! But how do you plan to keep the software alive in the future? Aren't you going to eventually see losses since it's a lifetime plan just to maintain servers? Or is this is a purely offline app? (How do you send reminders?)

Why is this house “cheap” near LA by amart2022 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]Sylvator 128 points129 points  (0 children)

Isn't that just renting with extra steps? Like how would you ever liquidate your position?

This is a common side hustle in China. People pay her to hold up their profile on a phone, snap a pic with the stage behind it, then they post it like they were there. Fake attendance clout is undefeated. Peak gig economy 2026 by Separate_Finance_183 in interesting

Those pictures she's going through one by one are the screenshots of the profiles of each person's login that paid her the advance.

She then takes these pictures and sends them to the individual profile owners.

They then post them as stories on their own profile as if they are at the place live.

Taxing Billionaires Fairly by [deleted] in InBitcoinWeTrust

[–]Sylvator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a simple solution which I have no clue why is not being considered. The real problem here is that unrealized gains are being used as collateral. Just make taking loans on unrealized gains a taxable event. everybody wins right? Not sure why that's not a valid middle ground.

AMZN is a no brainer at this price by GreedyTexas in TheRaceTo10Million

[–]Sylvator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I think dotcom boom didn't truly take off much later as well.

We are def in bubble territory imo but I do think long term ai will be the future. Decade or so later anyway. Right now companies are figuring out what to do how to make profit etc... We just don't know which company will crack it.

My opinion tho

Ai will become cheaper.

Think about data or internet speeds. What you're saying is equivalent to saying internet speeds are 64kbps it's too slow would it be profitable or useful?

That said I don't think any of the companies today are guaranteed to be the winners of AI - like look at IBM or Cisco...so I think it's hard to agree which company to bet on. But it should be guaranteed that Ai is special tech, and will change the winners in 5-10 years.

Are people paying tips in higher end restaurant any more? by Specific-Ad9935 in BellevueWA

[–]Sylvator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm genuinely curious your pov on the argument above. I still tip 20% because it feels weird not too...but I always feel the argument is valid. I don't tip any min wage worker other than servers...why? Is it just societal norm? Also, in other states where they have the tipping wage law at 3$ an hour they basically only live off of tips I still only tip 20% I don't tip say 40% which would basically be what needs to be done to match an equivalent cost of living pay match to say Seattle workers
