TL;DR

donjuanicaon Ask HN: What companies have private offices for programmers?

No longer true. The new campus in Utah is very much an open design with low-walled cubicles and large open spaces.

donjuanicaon Poll: Do you work at a startup?

Ditto. Viva la Omniture!

donjuanicaon Ask HN: How can I invest in tech startups with as little as $50k?

I totally see your point. There's no way I could diversify my $75k enough to sufficiently offset the risk associated with investing it. A few people have mentioned investing clubs or syndicates -- this seems like an interesting way to break in.

donjuanicaon Ask HN: How can I invest in tech startups with as little as $50k?

I have my portfolio of "solid" investments - now I'm looking to grab the brass ring. I have no trouble parking my money for years before a liquidity event but I'm definitely looking to see a sizable return on investment.

This looks super promising! Thanks for the lead.

donjuanicaon Ask HN: How can I invest in tech startups with as little as $50k?

I have certainly considered that, but I'm at a point in my life where I want my money to work for me - not the other way around. I'd be interested in providing capital for a startup but I have less interest in being involved in their day-to-day business.
