I think that's a pretty myopic outlook, there are way more than a 1000 applied mathematicians working in fields were their skills are useful outside of academia (and not just in finance), even those who live off of teaching contribute to the raising of the floor.

Wouldn't be surprised if you weren't the only person with equity in nvidia around that time with similar paperwork errors, were that to be the case if word got around they settled with you, more people would start coming forward for the easy money.

This is depressing, I'd expect people at these events to be more informed and less ignorant than the general public.
Re:Vulnerability Reports are not Special Anymore

Have you considered using LLMs to perform some automated more-or-less reliable classification of incoming reports by severity, affected product, etc., then have agents try to replicate the reported findings?
Ideally the reports would also be coming in in the same structured format.

I recall the AUR always being touted very highly as some great advantage for Arch as a linux distro, unfortunately this convenience has also come with a price.
It's crazy that all it takes to become a maintainer of a package is to flag it as orphaned, wait 2 weeks for the original maintainer to fail to respond because they're on a holiday, and BAM! - the attacker can gets assigned as a maintainer and can now ship spicy updates.

Firecracker and gVisor are used by AWS and GCP, respectively, are open source. That's just off the top of my head, I'm sure there's more, there's also the whole Open Compute Project, after all.

I doubt there are many people in tech with bad Internet. Worst case, there's Starlink.
All other issues are easily solvable too, either with the right tools, or the right processes.

That's a problem that can be encountered by companies that don't think through how remote work is supposed to work at their workplace. It's easier to craft processes when everyone is remote (i.e. if the company is remote-first).

If getting the best developers for your budget isn't a priority, hiring remotely allows you to stretch your runway further.
I wanted to reply to your comment re:Nordics but it seems it reached a limit to comment depth, your experiences are probably related to interacting with a biased sample, a quick google tells me that on average only a couple hundred Swedes immigrate to the US per year.

Lots of European tech work is just offshoring/outsourcing for US companies. S174 affects them to an even higher degree since foreign software development has to be amortized not over 5 years, but over 15 years.
