Is the tech world really holding back pypy3 for a lack of $40k? I would expect there are multiple individuals in this thread who could top that off without feeling much sting. Let alone the tech companies they work for who would benefit greatly from it.
- flubert 10y agoJust out of curiosity, at what level of wealth or yearly income would you think someone would have to have in order to drop $40k on a project like that?
- corysama 10y agoI meet a lot of different engineers in different situations around SF all the time. Recently met one who is at a point that he owns several (>2) Teslas... Someone with $400K in liquid assets could do it without being embarrassed. I would be surprised if there wasn't as least one person reading these comments in that situation. Would that person care deeply enough to say "Here! Just finish it!" ?? Not likely. However, I'm very surprised that there isn't at least one multi-million dollar company who would value this higher than few person-months of internal engineering time.
