And just like school shootings, that German pilot studied MH370. The MH370 pilot likely did the same thing. He was separated from his wife & at his house they found he practiced the crash route on Microsoft Flight simulator.

Surprised it's even that high, I tried to switch to Firefox the other month for privacy but gave up because it crashed on me it-least once a day.

Edit: thanks for the downvotes, I would have preferred if it worked but it didn't. I tried basic troubleshooting, disabling extensions etc. but didn't find it usable on macOs Monterey, think it doesn't play well with youtube.

> Work with 3 incredible guys that I trust

Do you actually trust them? It sounds like they haven't lived up to what you feel was promised in terms of helping with the GTM and getting the business off the ground.

You gave up control very early for money. Who knows if it was a good decision or not, but if you aren't at peace with the deal you made that is a very shaky foundation to be starting on.

> While the time with them is very helpful, I can't shake the feeling that if I'm doing 99% of the work + came up with the idea, I'm better of finding a co-founder and start my own company.

Since you are not CEO, presumably they own your IP - so your options may be limited with striking out on your own.

"dystopia: an imagined state or society in which there is great suffering or injustice"

That doesn't preclude rich people. In fact having rich people help with the contrast, like in the article where a human beings body rotted on the sidewalk for a day outside a 5 million dollar home.

Utopia? More like a Cyberpunk Dystopia...

> Look at the actual numbers though and, at least officially, it’s not that bad. A city of ~800,000 residents has ~8,000 people living on the streets[1]. Around 1%, same as the ratio for USA as a whole with 580,000 homeless people[2].

1% of the US would be around 3 Million people...

And with outdoor restaurants it's possible to combine the thrill of potentially being randomly assaulted with the pleasure of fine dining!

Sort of ignores that during this period they were fighting the US. federal government and their product development gotten taken over by lawyers

> if it goes for a piddling $500M your friend gets ~$11K over 3 years

They would get 0, you aren't accounting for seniority.

Could be but with 607.5MM shares outstanding, that 10k full vest would have a FMV of of a few hundred dollars - they wouldn't even need to give options

> at a valuation of $70B.

> it is a very early stage startup.

One of these does not fit.

The strategy is to focus on the 600 enterprise companies that are responsible for 75% of their ARR & to cut marketing expense and R&D. Seems reasonable.

I wanted to switch to Firefox, but gave up because it kept hanging on me with only a couple of tabs open.
