I posted it on HN as I liked the points in the article. The points in the post are reasonable provided there's fair equity for the employees (which I believe is disclosed prior to joining - I have no knowledge about dilution, preference etc). I also agree with the commenters on HN that it doesn't make much sense when there's no equity.
But there are too many comments making the same/similar point.
I personally find what Alex is doing is inspiring, running a 200 person company (ref: article) at 23 is remarkable. I also applaud his courage to publicly share what he thought was best advice.
I might get downvoted for this but I couldn't not say this.
I am sorry, I didn't make my question clear. I was not asking about 'frameworks' as in tools but templates/structures that you use while writing/thinking.
This project (and any smart glass for that matter) is a privacy nightmare. But labeling video and audio data as mapping data instead of what it is is disingenuous. And more importantly, even if I'm not a user of this product and don't benefit from it in any way, I have to forego my privacy because of someone else's choice. I wonder at what point will these anti-privacy technology will be banned. How could this work under GDPR?!
To expand a bit more, UBI might help service workers and others other hourly wage workers to take care of themselves. The service workers are the people who interact with other people the most, so an infected service worker who doesn't have an option but to work will end up spreading the disease. UBI might be the answer to temporarily keep them alive.
All of us have to live on reserves if there's a shutdown. Just like China did. It is not going to be great. But the alternative is much worse. And I am not claiming this is a permanent solution.
> Till when? For as long as the disease outbreak is contained (it is not going to be forever)
> How will people put food on the table if economic activity stops? No idea! Maybe something like UBI will help? But the question will remain and will be more troublesome if the outbreak is not contained for sure.
Fwiw, I am a foreign grad student currently happy with the lifestyle in Canada. But I'm wondering whether I've made the right career move moving to Canada.
