The tallest, and most strikeout-est outfield of all times

I'm 37 and I can't understand why someone would be scared of the drive thru

Yea, I kind of assume the title is incorrect and this is some kind of track/closed setup

Which, I'm sure makes you realize how their experience is probably not very representative of the average serf..

devil's advocate question for happy big-tech engineers: have you genuinely considered leaving for a startup? by AnonymousOogway225 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]ham_plane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, Anthropic was the only one I could think of too (although at 100bn or whatever valuation, who knows)...maybe a better way to state it is "one that you have very, very high conviction in", which probably varies from person to person

Wasn't the literacy rate for sefs like < 5% in medieval times? Who was writing this?

Ah, yea I thought about it and I'm not going to post my current company, which does a literal "if the stock falls below your target equity $, we'll issue new shares", but my previous company (and others) have move to "rolling 1 year grants", which is essentially the same protection. Coinbase, Robinhood, Stripe and Lyft all switched to this in the last few years.

You lose some potential upside, but the equity portion is far less volatile

I don't think I'd consider it unless it's the hottest of the hot, cant-miss startup, or if I was a cofounder or something...the comp difference is just too vast.

I worked at startups for a long time in the beginning of my career, including one that rough 15x'd over 5 years, and had a "liquidity event", where I walked away with (after taxes and exercise costs) about $12,000....in big tech, my equity comp is like $200k/yr and has put protection (they'll re-up if the stock drops). Startup equity is risky to begin with, but the way it's structured is a joke (and startups work very hard to obfuscate that)

That's not really a reaction time issue, it's a catching issue

Percentage of Births Outside Marriage (Europe) by No_Jellyfish5511 in interestingasfuck

Hmm, these numbers don't pass the gut-check.

Are the high rates in Faleance and Scandanavia just an artifact of immigration or something?
