Employees do not cost that much, not even in SF. There are also many employees in sales roles in non-SF locales. Their revenue is probably more on the order of 5-10b - the vast majority of payments volume is from large customers which negot

Yes, it would be much better for inequality if everyone's salaries were low and the trillions of value created in tech to go to a couple VCs, their LPs and their trust fund kids.

Yes, the poor shareholders that don't work for their money should be given more of it. Tim Cook doesn't deserve any of the $2T value Apple created during his tenure... it should go to the trust fund kids. Instead of complaining ab

You describe mapping and cherrypicking as intertwined, but they're pretty orthogonal to each other. You can cherrypick without mapping (Nikola rolling a truck down a hill). You can map without cherrypicking (Waymo/Cruise allow you
