The above might be too far-fetched as it only applied to India? They did pay a fine to the regulator and resumed trading (might not be the same strategy though) To OP’s original question, they made $20B last year and have a niche in several

hmm, I did not know that. Do you have some external links or returns to back this claim?

Think there are many others (you mentioned one of them e.g., TGS) but they are not in the same league as RenTec's medallion fund.

Does anyone know of any well known tools that generate bindings in other languages e.g., Python from C++ code? IIUC, this tool does the opposite i.e., generate C++/other language bindings from Python

Curious, what kind of companies were these? In my experience in the valley, almost all of the h1b's I have worked with are the smartest people I know from top colleges.

hmm, I don't think it is pre-tax. May be some NFLX employee can confirm.

hmm, from what I have seen, $400k is usually their de-facto salary that gets junior folks (L4/E4) from F/G to make their top of market and move to NFLX. Beyond that, do you know how the comp progression is?

You get the option to invest any portion of your salary in NFLX stock options.

Interesting. Do you happen to know if there is a formal process to do so or just an email would suffice?

Do you have any links to confirm the latter? From what I have been seeing, the number of both Indian/Chinese students coming to the US for studying has gone down post the Trump administration. Also, I am seeing more Indian/Chinese

What was Github's current valuation? It seems that the last round valued them at $2b in 2015. Around ~3x multiple on the last round (~7.5b$). Hopefully, the employees are all happy!

Curious, did you evaluate any other similar technologies like Swarm/(Mesos+Marathon) etc.? What made you eventually go ahead with K8s other than the main obvious reason (the community) itself?

Hmm, my experience with Lyft was slightly different. I went to past trips, clicked find lost item. The support reached out to the driver in 10 minutes and I had the driver at my door in a hour. Haven’t Lost an item with Uber though for comp

Usually the common stocks goes at a discount of around close to 15-20percent when compared to preferred for good deals. If the company is not doing well, the discount would be higher proportionally.

Most startups in SV though have a standard ROFR clause. So as long as you can find a buyer, you would get paid. That being said, read the options agreement carefully and ensure your interests are well protected.

Please don’t spread FUD when you have no clue what you are talking about. Mesos core is certainly not legacy and has been on C++11 for a long time/is very well maintained and has a large active development community. In case a bug has

I couldn't understand the part about an employee and loosing my job. Are you saying that they won't be able to sell their equity even at a steep discount in 90 days? Even, if they incur a loss of ~30-40% over the current prevailin

Its not that trivial. ISO's have a $100k limit.

by hatred 9y ago
You seem to be bringing up a really good point. From reading the article earlier, I was under the false impression that this applies to ISO's too but looks like it only applies to NSO's. What about non-public RSU's for late s

by hatred 9y ago
Yeah, mostly applies to pre-IPO companies offering stock options/RSU's.

by hatred 9y ago
Makes sense, Thanks.

by hatred 9y ago
Thanks for the detailed explanation. I am wondering if its ever possible to board to later approve that those newly bought "common" stocks get converted to "preferred" i.e., have the same liquidation preference?

by hatred 9y ago
Couple of queries if anyone happens to know: - Would existing employees with stock options be allowed to sell or the ones with RSU's are also eligible? - Would ex employees be eligible too?

You also need to understand that they believe in hiring/keeping high-performers that are much more productive than average engineers. This is how you can justify the much higher salaries (top of market). IIUC, this means; You are effec
