Let's say you have the opportunity to sell your shares in the private market for $2/share a few years after you've vested. Exercise earlier: Strike price: $0.10 FMV at exercise: $0.20 Taxes: AMT on $0.10 gain (might be $0 in

My early engineer story is a lot different than this. 0.7% sold shares for ~1M at the end of 4 years. There is a bit of luck, and a bit of picking the right one to join. Don't join the ones that don't tell you what your equity sha

I completely disagree on the risk. What was the opportunity cost for you in founding? Are you taking a salary comparable to your FANG comp? Usually the early employees are getting paid a lot closer to their market rate than the founders are

The options are exerciseable whenever they are vested (and if you are on good terms, sometimes before that). This can be a waste of money, or a huge boon in terms of taxes avoided.

When is the outcome 'known'? Only when the business fails?

It's an interesting game, but the AI is making really bad plays.

Yes, same place as car tires. The magnitude is much smaller than car tires though.

They already use a shallow angle. There's just a lot of energy involved. As soon as the drag kicks in, the angle gets steeper and steeper on its own as the drag slows the craft down.

Its more than double.

It would take a tremendous amount of fuel to do what you're imagining, probably to the point of making the craft impossible to build with current technology. Your orbit would have to be high enough to do a burn to cancel your orbital v

That is also true. There are decades of fraudulent papers out there to find from the before times, so it'll still be useful.

Elisabeth Bik has a twitter where, at least in the past, she exposed a bunch of questionable things in papers (lots of manipulated images or images copied from other papers) https://x.com/MicrobiomDigest https://

You've never had a package of meat leak a little juice in to the grocery bag? If you have, you either wash it (inconvenient) or you have rancid meat juice if you don't (it doesn't start rancid).

What would you estimate the cost to be? In my locale, bags are charged at $0.25 each.

It's an inconvenience to actually reuse the bag that is inevitably covered in rancid meat juice. Calling people idiots isn't constructive, and besides, one may not be an idiot for simply not caring about burying a few plastic bags

It's really a farce. The old bags were really, really thin. Now, they're reuseable, and so they have to be much thicker, but they're still only used once. This just means that we're making more plastic waste.

How does this work, practically, at the grocery store? Many foods are sold in a disposable plastic wrapper. Cereal, meat, frozen foods, etc. What is the alternative? We bring a bunch of tupperware and everything is sold in bulk?

The title is asking for something different from the problem statement.

Why does that mean they should be excluded?

It takes 3 minutes to remove the speaker. There are great tutorials on youtube. I've only purchased airtags for use as theft recovery, and if they beep it defeats the purpose.

It's more sad that your expectations would be met in most places.

Yes. The NSA is collecting any data it can get access to.

Drivers can stare right at you as they run you over. Believing you have eye contact does not prevent you from being run over.

Sure, but they're owned by Stellantis, so they can just stick the Jeep badge on an Alfa, for instance.

Jeep is a brand. Article says nothing about off road capabilities.
