Maturities were greater than > 1 year. It's been broken down pretty nicely on twitter by some of the larger VC partners.

Thanks!

Well an amendment in 2017 to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware added Section 115 which explicitly permits Delaware startups to adopt in its certificate of incorporation a requirement that all internal corporate claims are exclusively held in front of a Judge in Delaware. Several cases in California have upheld this. So it's not exactly a crazy question to ask if this would work for YC startups employees.

Does that work even if the companies incorporated in Delaware?

Don't know why this is being downvoted - if a bank takes $100 and keeps $20 liquid while investing $80, and then everyone comes for their money, the first $20 is available but the rest will be slower if not completely lost. If everyone tried to take their money yesterday some people will win but a large number will lose... If there wasn't a run on the bank chances are it could have (slightly?) weathered the storm.

In a fractional reserve people can't all win

It allows criminals to do bad things, common examples would be CP or terrorism.

Alcohol is borrowing happiness today from tomorrow. If you self-medicate with alcohol it will be worse in the longterm. Don't fall down that rabbit hole.

Before people invented the word running, did they just walk fast everywhere?

Try contracting? I first hit six figures in London as a test engineer with 6 years experience and no degree

$145k seems too high, $167k seems too low. Weird data - juniors on high rates are more willing to share and seniors in good jobs don't care about these surveys?

Oh I agree! But better to avoid renting in general imo, if it’s a possibility.

Are you in the Bay Area? If so I saw an ad in SF for condos/1 bed flats starting at high $300k on the weekend. With recent zoning changes it might get easier for you soon.

Could you explain this a little more? I've worked in early stage startups for almost eight years and had 1 minor acquisition where I got barely anything. I'd love to look into this 'targeted approach' you mention.

I like the whole food based diet; essentially buying fresh items simple ingredients. Stick to the meat and produce isles, maybe go to the butchers or bakery for local meat and bread, and a greengrocers for local veg. Make things like sauces from scratch. I enjoy cooking which helps. I believe that no matter what Scientists decide are good/bad for that particular year I'm going to be okay because it's simple, fresh, and rarely processed.

Did you found those IPOs and acquisition startups? That’s very impressive if so!

If it helps this isn’t too different to almost every PhD I knew during their final year. My wife was in bits during that year. Just keep pushing on till it’s over, and if you need a holiday to help alleviate burnout do so.

You have a tool to keep the structure of data but anonymize it, I’ve seen this a few times in healthcare regulated systems

Imagine the number of developer years required for even just parity…

> to go through all possible paths

This isn't even possible, I'd be amazed at 25% of paths!

That’s not as a contractor but as a master union electrician, and from what I gather it’s shift work on reactors so spending several months on site at that rate then having holiday until another gig comes up.

Na, entry level roles are really around 120k. I know some people on higher amounts sure, but even places like Atherton and Woodside have average household incomes of $300/350k. I live in Palo Alto and have found the 200k mark for startups is pretty good for a fairly senior engineer at a cool company. Of course in the HN bubble we’re all making $1m before bonuses :)

Sarcasm?

I wouldn't prematurely leave on the basis of AI, if it does happen you('re friend) can retrain there and then. Chances are there will be all sorts of jobs still requiring technical knowledge when that time comes, if it comes.

If it's an interest you('re friend) has then why not take a couple evening classes to slowly get the foundational skills & ensure you have enough of savings to make that jump in the future if needed?

Fwiw, I live in the Bay Area and one of the best paid people I know is an electrician - he can pull in $1k a day on some jobs - so the upside is there too.

100 acres of farmland only requires 1 Ox 100 days of a year!

It's interesting how different peoples use of testing terminology is across teams/companies/professions. Vocab is standardized by various ISO's, ASQ, and ISTQB so we could all share the same language, then we don't have to debate about what integration/unit/smoke/component/regression/golden/snapshot testing means

Their PhD was in crappy programming, I assume

If they used ChatGPT to generate their course, are they really lying?
