Of course most startups fail, and most equity is worth nothing. I guess I didn’t think “routinely” implied a specific percentage, just that it isn’t uncommon for options to be worth a lot. If even 5–10% of VC startups succeed, then it’s sti

While I think it’s good advice to live as if the equity is worth zero, treating all equity as if its worth nothing, seems a bit over-reductionist when equity packages can routinely be worth millions of dollars. Obviously it’s a crapshoot an

When I got multiple startup job offers, I realized how hard it was to project out a realistic value behind the equity. Guessing future valuations, dealing with dilution, and running through endless scenarios was a headache—so I built Compar

A lot of people saying the business model doesn't justify a $1bn valuation (rightfully so), but I'm guessing the valuation wasn't for their current business, but on the possibility that Cameo became the new way for booking ta

To be fair, I also didn’t include the session layer! My writing isn’t a strength of mine, so I appreciate the criticism. My writing going from “bad” -> “is it AI?” is progress. I struggled with where to “cutoff” the explanation and publi

While I agree no one is rewriting history, it is potentially a big deal because it speaks to the biases present when training/RLHF-ing. Considering this will be used by millions (if not tens of millions), calling it a “silly toy” feels

I no longer work at Brex, but I believe they did this using Kotlin rather than Elixir.

I think this is one of those things where people overestimated how much things would change in the short-term, but will grossly underestimate how much they will change in the longterm. 5 years is a pretty short window in the grand scheme of

Without divulging any trade secrets, are there any research papers or topics you would recommend learning more about? I'm really interested in learning more about these FSO improvements.

My guess would be that it's very easy to write down a value, but much harder to actually practice that value consistently.

For #3: If anyone is looking for an enterprise search they can boot up "cloud-prem" (in their VPC), that's exactly what we're building at https://landria.io/customers/why-landria .

Yeah I feel the same as you. So much knowledge gets shared on Slack that searching the complete history is often really valuable. I even went a step further and built a product that would generate FAQs from slack history and made it easy fo

Back at my old job, people would have trouble knowing what to do when on-call. I built a slack app that would keep track of my team's pages and what people did to respond to them. As new pages were triggered, the bot would show the on-

What is the 100-year old strategy? All of the screenshots look like a pretty standard ToDo List app. I'm not trying to be overly critical, but I guess I don't see what makes this ToDo list better than all the others.

"The price total of the acquisition is about $166 million, with $154 million in cash and the remainder in restricted shares." Is it normal to have nearly the entirety of the acquisition be cash? I would have assumed the standard w

Gotcha. Yeah, I would much rather use a managed k8s service over deploying and maintaining my own. GCP's GKE has been great for us so far and very reasonably priced.

If you need to distribute containers on a handful of nodes, kubernetes is great (and far better than Docker swarm imho). However, most small businesses probably don't need to have a microservice setup and can simply deploy a simple mon

Completely agree with you, although I'm not sure how much of 'Hot take' that is.

Most of my skepticism is not tied to the ambiguity of certain values but the discrepancy of what people claim to be the values, versus what actually happens day-to-day. I don't mean to come off critical of your product. Your goals are
