I should clarify that individual eBPF programs have to terminate, but more complex problems can be solved with multiple eBPF programs, and can be "scheduled" indefinitely using BPF timers

I'm a big Docker fan, but this is interesting to me mostly because it shows how it's hard to get started, particularly the opening few sentences about the paucity of documentation for helping you get going from scratch. There have been good guides, but they go out of date quickly! There's so much change (because it's still very much under development) that it's hard for someone coming to it fresh to figure out what's up-to-date and what isn't. For those of us working in container tech and tools this is a good lesson about making sure the entry curve isn't too steep.

Is the cut being applied across the board, or just to you as a remote worker?

How open are they being with you about the financial forecasts? Would someone in the leadership team walk you through how, if everyone takes a haircut, this is going to make the difference to whether the company succeeds or fails? If it were me, a big part of my decision would be based on how engaged the leadership team were in keeping me on board, and how they communicated their calculations.

The fact that you have no equity could (should?) be negotiable. You would be perfectly within your rights to say, look, if I take a haircut on salary because I believe in the company, I should get some options / equity to reward me for having that faith.

Of course if you don't want equity because, deep down, you're not a believer, then you may as well start looking at alternatives that will match or better your current deal.
