Generally, you can only be offered equity (I assume you mean options on common stock) at a current valuation of the common stock. If the company just raised a round, they will have a new valuation of the common stock (a 409a) valuation. If

Exempt and non-exempt are terms that only apply to employees. Contractors would generally be expected work work hourly (like non-exempt) or on a project basis (like exempt) depending on their negotiated contract. But in general I don't

Yes, for sure. However, it may infringe on existing patents, and it's often quite difficult to determine that in advance. But I agree, among OSS's many virtues are that it establishes what's known and prevents future patents

That may be a good thing, but open source doesn't mean non-patent infringing.

I work at the company that developed this cognitive training program. Happy to take any questions about the study if folks are interested.

I sincerely didn't mean to be unconstructive - my apologies. By "working in practice", I mean working in randomized controlled trials. I agree that anecdotal self-report doesn't mean "working in practice" (or much of anything).

Seth Roberts sent me a list of questions and I answered all of them. He then selectively quoted my answers. It's his blog, and there's nothing I can do about it.

About $150/employee/month, for almost all services. Of course if you elect to pay a portion of benefits (e.g., health care), that's on top as a pass-through. Certain special requests have a la carte pricing, but you most likely won't need t

We've been generally happy with TriNet, and it's worth having a great benefit package and an HR call center. It's not free, but I think the math works out about the same way free meals do.

Losing every photo of your daughter from her birth to 18 months old is traumatizing. Yes, of course he should have backed it up. Of course it's less traumatizing than surviving a violent crime. It's still traumatizing.
