or it's almost as if they sold to someone, just named it differently. I'm assuming if they flop after those 350M, everything (IP, materials, etc) will go to those investors.

Have you considered it might not be a love of programming you're lost, but other mental health issue? I mean- burnout, depression, PTSD, ...? Are there things you're highly passionate about and would want to do instead of software

World has changed a lot in last 20-30 years, as cold war and USSR did end in 1991 and lot of things changed in Europe and Asia since then. Valley will never be what it was in terms of global influence, especially if we look 40-50 years back

What I'd like to know as a developer- what was the "great" idea with the "call forwarding" in specific contract function?! What would be the valid use case, why author decided he should put it there beforehand?
