If there’s anyone stupid enough to value such a company at more than $0, Elon should sell that company and just start another one. Infinite money machine. He should call it Bitcoin or NFT or something similar...

It is in the public's interest to transparently understand the activities and finances of anyone with outsized political power. Since money is freely convertible to and from political power, people with outsized amounts of money have outsized political power, and are therefore public figures. Are ProPublica publishing details of people who are not rich?
I'm fine with limiting additional contributions to the Roth IRA once its value passes some number (and around $10M, indexed to CPI, feels reasonable).

I'm not bothered by investments whose value grows beyond that figure, to be honest, mostly because it's not clear what you'd actually do about it without trying to value unrealized positions and more likely compel transactions. (Valuing listed shares is relatively straightforward, but compelling transactions is abhorrent to me.)

> And who will take the blame when 999/1000 of them fail and are forced onto the street?

The 1 in 1000 which succeeds would alone provide so much quality of life to society that while it's true that the 999 would see monetary value evaporate, ultimately what really matters is quality of life.

Think for instance about nuclear fusion. Many are trying. The contemporaries of the person who eventually gets it right who are also trying to make fusion happen will go bankrupt...but they are still better off than a world in which all of 1000 decided not to try and make fusion happen.

That's a true tragedy of the commons, the best thing for society is for everybody to try their ambitious ideas, whereas every individual is on the fence, not sure that others will also followthrough and everybody backpedals into searching for risk-free yield which beats inflation instead.
The "Investments" made by private equity firms are not the same as investments made by you and I. Why? Because unlike for a public company, holding a managing stake in a private company in certain circumstances and controlling how they compensate you for your services, permits you to legally pay yourself (or perform financing indistinguishable from paying yourself) in shares that you assign an arbitrary value to.

Let's say I've taken over management of a private retail firm with a big multibillion-dollar balance sheet that's barely breaking even. Yesterday when my finance firm borrowed $800M to acquire it, I felt like the company was worth $900M, today as I guide it through the bankruptcy process I feel like it's worth $100k, which has no consequences whatsoever except for the $5000 in shares (5% stake) I'm issuing to myself today as a management fee. Tomorrow I'll feel like it's worth $1400M once some of its debts have been renegotiated and I take it public again. My shares just appreciated 1,400,000%.

This is a tiny, oversimplified picture of how all this works; Everyone that takes advantage of these structures has their own spin on it. In VC it may take the form of simultaneous dollar-capitalized debt and ownership stakes. It would take an aggressive forensic audit to even know what's been employed here. There are more than enough levers to pull for this sort of compensation scheme to use arbitrary valuations to make a mockery of the program, though. With enough financial lawyers and enough money, they control the vertical and the horizontal here.

That money is tax-free. In this hypothetical, I've ascended to a partnership at this firm at age 59. I get full control of that money at age 65.

Yeah, and then they took little Calvin Jr and buried him in an unmarked grave or dumped him in the Potomac, right? The conditions were considerably worse than those afforded to the President's son, and arguably worse than those the children were taken from (although that's a judgement call). But in any case, we have a different feeling about kids dying in an otherwise abusive/coercive environment than we do about them dying with their families, for some strange reason.

I get that you're just being snarky here, but I've often wondered about comments like this. When did being virtuous become an insult? I actually think the ancient view of virtue is due for a bit of a comeback. Increasingly, investors and employees both want to know which companies are actually purpose- and mission-driven and which ones are not. I don't see the harm in giving them a way to signal that, as long as it's real.

I also don't understand the "liquidity" part of your comment either. LTSE is a participant in something called the National Market System which guarantees that every stock listed on every National Securities Exchange has the exact same level of access to liquidity.

Not sure where you’re located, but as others have said, this is not an uncommon or unreasonable salary for a strong developer in certain parts of the United States.

Wikipedia relies on a vast army of unpaid volunteers. Google would never be able to buy as much time and effort, even with their trillions of dollars. That's why they are actively using Wikipedia (and Wikidata) data. And they also import errors and vandalism, and it takes much longer to fix errors than on Wiki, because see above.

> a billion USD, Google could spend $100 worth of human curation per Wikipedia topic

$100 would buy how much? Probably 30 minutes of my time, if I'm feeling very generous. Actually, probably 10 mins if it's Google, because I'm not giving Google any discounts, if I'm to work for the Evil Empire, at least I want to get rich from it! That's not counting training costs, transaction costs, legal compliance and HR benefits costs, etc. etc. So, how much work I'd be able to do with one-time investment of 10 minutes? I don't think too much, even for the topic I'm an expert in. Maybe I'll be able to notice and fix one error, once.

And then, the data changes all the time. People do new things, people change jobs, people change names, people are born, people die. You have to run very fast to just stay in the same place. And then you have 200+ world languages (surprise, not everybody speaks English!) - Wikipedia actually has 300+ but let's drop the most exotic ones.

So a billion dollars wouldn't get you as much as you'd think. You probably need to bump it by couple of orders of magnitude. Which gives you an appreciation of how much value people are actually willing to donate completely free, if motivated correctly. Unfortunately, there's no way Google could have it - except through an intermediary like Wikipedia.

Okay - so apparently I really don't know cars ;P

I'm personally a non-driver so I am quite clueless here. That said it does impact my understanding a fair bit since paying 24k for a car seems like a pretty nice price for a car (you can get used cars for thousands of dollars, but a new car is probably going to be well over 10k) but where there are definitely cheaper options - paying 100k is pretty ridiculous.

Profit is not directly linked to shareholder value. E.g. an expanding business that is operating at a loss could end up benefiting the shareholders (through valuation) if there is an expectation of future profitability.
I would go so far that additional gains above $10 million are exposed to capital gains, as contributions are inconsequential compared to the compounding of the account’s assets at that account value.

This is in line with QSBS tax treatment of corporation shares, where if certain conditions are met, there are no capital gains on the first $10 million.

You may have been saying this tongue in cheek but it's an important thing to consider when choosing a platform.

I got very burnt once (in terms of time wasted anyway) by a startup that couldn't decide what it wanted to do.

They had an amazing BaaS product that probably was making good coin already that I am sure would have got them a buy out eventually but they decided to pivot to work on a DB abstraction layer and shut the whole thing down.

If they had just pursued the original vision they would be minted by now instead of trying to convince people their commercial layer is better than the umpteen other free ones.

It's worth noting that in the last years of the 19th century, when airship and zeppelin technology was just starting its first steps of development, many people throughout the United States reported numerous cases of phantom airship sightings. Much later, at the dawn of development or at least interest in rocketry and space travel technology in the late 1940's and then 50's, some of the first modern UFO sighting waves really captured public attention. Now, we have cases like this, but in the context of drone technologies, with the mysterious objects being seen having capabilities that appear to be a certain margin beyond what's known to be currently available. All three periods share some odd similarities.

> In 2011, a tall, confident Dutch scientist, Ron Fouchier, using grant money from Fauci’s group at NIH, created a mutant form of highly pathogenic avian influenza, H5N1, and passaged it ten times through ferrets in order to prove that he could “force” (his word) this potentially fatal disease to infect mammals, including humans, “via aerosols or respiratory droplets.”

"Windows has always stood for sovereignty for creators and agency for consumers"? Yeah... um... Over the years, tell me how Windows has respected my agency on what browser I wanted to use. (For that matter, tell me how well it respects my decisions about where I want the icons to be on my desktop.)

Microsoft has run over my agency any time they felt like they could make a buck by doing so, and sometimes even when they couldn't. (The icon thing is just incompetence - I think - rather than an evil plan to get some more money somehow.)
One point I haven't seen covered is complexity.

Carta seems to have an extremely complex authorization scheme but I wouldn't say that's the common case. Many organizations can get by using simple role + account based permissions.

If you are a member of this account then you have access to the resources this account owns minus anything you can't access because you don't have role X or Y. Oftentimes the account based permissions boil down to where clauses in SQL statements. The role based permissions can be mapped to scopes in a JWT or similar.

Anything beyond that can be done with if statements in your "parse user input" function or simply caught later on resulting in a 4XX error.

I know at my particular organization, even when we have cross-account sharing, it's heuristic based. It's simple enough to just apply it in the application code. Stuff like "did this user's organization receive this shipment?"

I feel like you have to be either a very large organization trying to make sure people do things consistently or have a very, very granular permissions model to even embark on making the decision of "build a whole authorization product in house or outsource it?"
Interesting. If it works well it might be enough to make me buy a Surface.

I don't think that is necessarily a disadvantage - it could even work to your benefit as most of Google's legal muscle is in the US.

It's not quite a simple as the word "lobbying" implies. But we are in active conversations with a lot of the other stakeholders on both the buy side and sell side to see if we can find ways to bring some flavor of this to the markets. But I really can't be more specific because we don't have anything concrete to report - yet.

I will say that I expect companies will also have opportunities to innovate in this area when it comes to their own stock, though I do think it will take a while as the industry is relatively conservative about things like this.
