guaranteed? right...

haha

Seeing how there is nothing particularly innovative at Tesla... This is not surprising

Hey Abe... not supposed to post jobs here.. there's a jobs section for that...

Not likely... The process of sponsoring a visa applicant can be costly and must be completed by a us citizen. There are significant cost to this as well. If they find out, you will be blacklisted and never gain citizenship

Containers seem to be heading more in the direction of VMs. Which would compartmentalize the services of a given application, but then you might need a separate container for a given app. I don't know if you can completely get away from the problem of shipping code to new environments without configuration/customization.

Most people achieve success well past 30, actually entrepreneurs over the age of 55 are more likely to be successful than those under 55.

The reason why there are stories about successful 20 year olds is because its so rare.

The average of millionaires is 63 and billionaires is 60.

Good luck getting a visa...

What... the question was not "programmers that did well" it was "Can GOOD programmers be CEOs?" The ones that have made it big were mediocre at best....

Bill's OS was a mess... didn't write DOS, but "fixed" it... which was the most god awful mess ever to be loading on a box...

Facebook in the early years used to crash on a daily basis... I guess you don't remember that... My wall would disappear altogether sometimes... he didn't invent HipHop which is actually amazing...

there's 20 guys fresh off the boat that will take the job for zero equity and probably have more experience...

You just got out of college and you got some equity and you don't think its enough? Wow... If were the founder I'd wonder what a recent grad had to offer to get any equity at all... Even if you got 1% or 2% the company would have to be worth hundreds of millions for you to see big money... and if its going that good then option and stock grants will be available to good employees. Don't try to hit a home run on your first time at bat. If you don't strike out... you're doing better than most.

However, I think you're looking at this the wrong way. Most startups fail.. you should be angling for more base and not worry about the equity at this point... get the experience and add it to your portfolio and look to your next job when this company tanks

Bill was a terrible programmer... So was the facebook kid

they can't...
