    Couldn't the book cost 7.5k and one has 6.5 and the other has 0.5? Along those lines, isn't anything in the range of costing 7->8 (non-inclusive) acceptable (e.g. 0.9k and 6.9k)?

    They seem to be expanding successfully into video and email. I'd expect the next big lift to be the sequencing of those different mediums.

    I guess it would depend how you structure the purchases. If you allow for the purchasing of a common share at the 409 valuation, you wouldn't have a tax hit until you sell it. You …

    Interesting thought. We're a private company, so the stock is still illiquid. That wouldn't prevent purchasing stock, but the question is where it would come from. Option pools are…

    Depends on the role/level, but ~10-15k annually between each tier. I have gone beyond the endpoints (within reason) by just linearly extrapolating, though that tends to be pretty u…

    Can only speak to my experience, but I am completely indifferent to their choice. Either of the 3 tend to be relatively substantial in equity, so everyone is invested in some regar…

    In general, it seems to be appreciated. We initially set it up this way to help take some of the stress out of negotiation (as that favors certain people over others). A few learni…

    Agree with you on this. We do that at my company Divvy. Each prospective hire is given 3 different options (varying levels of cash / equity). The "implied" value of all three at th…

    I love Meeting Bar. Use it every day. I really like the applescript feature. A hotkey combo pauses my music, launches zoom or meet, and I'm good to go

    Off topic, but just checked out Beekeeper - Seems like a solid SQL IDE! Had been using Postico before, but going to give yours a try.

    Without knowing your exact situation, one thing to keep in mind is that the preferred value (last valuation / # of shares) of a share is generally a good bit higher than the tax li…

    Agree. I wrote the engine in Node (so punted on the threading problem a bit) then just ported pieces of the engine to firebase functions to handle the actual computation. Made test…

    Thank you. Still feels like and endless set of features to add: tournaments, hot keys, animations, etc. It took about 2 weeks of nights/weekends to have something functional I coul…

    I wrote a video-integrated online poker game to try and mimic in person home games. It was easier to build than I expected using Twilio, Firebase, and React. https://pokerinplace.a…

    Not sure about other banks, but Wells Fargo offered this to me last month (just as a UI in their mobile app).

    Hey all. Built this over the past couple of weeks as an alternative to more Zoom calls. It’s built with React and using Firebase for storage and compute and Twilio for video. Hope …
