      I don't think that anyone else does. That's the thing I'd really like to see an analysis of!

      I see a gap of at least that much, and I'm paying the remote worker tax. I've also heard of larger gaps from other sources.

      That article was interesting not for it's numbers (which I agree are wrong), but because of its analysis.

      I think people still calibrate programmer earnings based on 2010-type numbers, and still don't believe bigcos pay 2-5x that.

      It may take 5 years before the world believes in the gap, at which point we'll see acceptance of the lawyer gulfhttps://twitter.com/danluu/status/869755905621073921 …

      Alternately, the BLS says there are < 2m "programmers" + "software developers". Google alone has 30k engineers. Then consider FB, Amazon,...

      Also, I totally agree with you about the knowledge gap between employees and VCs about valuation and options classes.

      The article conveniently hand-waves that away, which is a non-trivial dismissal.

      Something else I'm curious about is how much 7 or 10 year exercise windows change attrition (compared to 90 day).

      Ben implies that startup attrit is because people rationally walk away from options they can keep, but in fact most people lose options...

      ...when they walk and they still do it. Most unicorns, even ones not having their valuations marked down, have (IMO) high attrit

          Empirically, the almost all unicorns have 90-day exercise windows and attrit is still v. high, so attrit cannot be as claimed in article

          Despite living in diff locations and having diff social circles, I think we know >= 1 person in common who's walked away from a lot of 💰.

          AFAICT, startup attrit happens in spite of income-maximizing decisions and not because of them.
