I am back here 👋 Still unsure if it's a good idea. But the time in tech is just too exciting.

Without AI, I would not have had time for this project, nor designing these small animations for some delight.

Still lots of effort to unslop UI

How to evaluate seniority for Software Engineers: - Needs physio for back and neck pain - Uses a Split Keyboard - Short sighted with glasses Extra points: they sustain 3 double espressos or two Club Mate a day without feeling it.

Lockup period can really ruin a liquidity event 🙃
With revenue numbers at Anthropic, hope employees have the patience to weather a storm. RSU liquidity can be a huge challenge. I was at Robinhood right before IPO. RSUs opened at $38. Employees had a 6mo lockup. Stock dipped below $11 eroding most of the value. Took a whole lot of patience and tbh beast company execution to see that money when the stock rose again many years later. @vladtenev crushed it so hard that they even gave employees refreshers to preserve morale during the downturn.

It’s often a once in a lifetime chance, and then you are locked up with paper money that is life changing. BTW companies can reduce lockup to just a month. Great companies offer secondaries beforehand

At GitLab we had both. Secondaries + only 1mo lockup.
