From the guide: "RSUs are less attractive than options from a tax point of view because you cannot make an 83(b) election with respect to an RSU." I'm fairly sure this is incorrect. Every other guide that I've read (jus

I think part of the confusion here is what determines the difference between a founder and an employee. Are there two founders? Three? Five? Seven? When did they all start working? Are they all working full time? Are they all taking

So the difference in their studies is what percentage of first time offenders will return to prison vs. what percentage of overall prisoners will return to prison?

If the CPU usage of my code jumped by a massive percentage, and only 20% of it can be attributed to one problem, I'm certainly going to pay attention to it. But I'm going to pay a lot more attention to the problems causing the ot

Back on track BEFORE its IPO. Which it didn't. And now it's employees' ISOs will get diluted. Let's just say I'm glad I didn't join when their strike price was crazy high in the last few years.

You can give gifts to a corporation. Twitter is buying the stock back at $0.

No, it doesn't. But $190 million in losses can be written off against $190 million in gains.

Twitter is buying the stock back from him at $0. You can't just donate stock to a company. That stock's nominal value is $200,000,000. So he takes a loss of $200,000,000 which he can write off against any gains he gets from Squ

This is simply a tax move. Dorsey is going to pay hundreds of millions in capital gains taxes when Square goes public later this year. He gets to take this as a loss which he can write off against those taxes. It's essentially free. Gr

This is why I don't buy into cap and trade and other expensive systems for the US to reduce its emissions. Compared to emerging economies, our emissions are already dramatically lower. It's the 2nd and 3rd world that needs to ge

Their pace of losses are increasing at about 50% more per year. Most companies that file to go public are at least losing less money over time with a path to profitability. I don't see how this bodes well for a strong IPO.

I disagree with her conclusion that "we should not conclude that they were experiencing some kind of early sexual emancipation". Why shouldn't we? Younger girls were enjoying sex out of wedlock precisely because they could.
