Unless you did have a fire sale and it went for $2M - that's what it's worth at that moment in time. Sure it could be worth $10M in the future, but it isn't right now.

Where that lands ethically, morally or legally is up to interpretation by the relevant people and jurisdictions.
You can do both, at the same time, but one has external expectations you shouldn't forget about.
I despise what NPM has become, and how complex / time consuming the build pipeline of front end apps is.
It’s still not a mature framework yet but hot damn does it excel at just getting out of my way and letting me ship stuff.
My mains had just touched and ATC called for a GA, they obviously saw something I didn't and I was airborne a few seconds later. Circled and landed with no issues.
It could've been anything from metal on the runway to an aircraft not responding or reading back in time while taxing to a priority medevac helicopter.
Two aircraft on the active runway at the exact same time? Usually not allowed. Two aircraft one after the other? That's okay.
Clearances are for future events that lead to the latter, not the former.
Only one aircraft is actually allowed to depart/land on a given runway at any one point in time.
You can have clearance to land after the aircraft in front has landed or departed, but broadly two civilian aircraft occupying the same runway is a no-no if either are taking off or landing. Seaplanes is another matter entirely, and of course there are dozens of exceptions.
You can have multiple aircraft cleared for a departure or arrival or approach - but note that this is not a clearance to take off or land.
I've been given clearances to land roughly 5 seconds before my wheel touch and my hands were just about to shove power in to go around. I've been told to go around after my wheels are on the runway too.
We usually know what ATC is doing or waiting for and we can anticipate those calls.
I don't think the US is different from the RoW in that manner - they all need to conform to the ICAO regulations - otherwise we'd have chaos with US pilots navigating China or vice versa.
Me: FAA (US) & CASA (AU) PPL w/MEA + IR.
Disclaimer - PPL, fly mostly twins under IFR, in Australia (still ICAO, if anything we're more or less a copy of the FAA).
Most heavy jets are covering between 2-3 miles a minute when coming in to land. Usually a 3 mile call is to affirm to ATC that they are a minute away (or two for GA traffic).
Most heavy jets also need anywhere from half a minute to three get airborne depending on size / weight / weather.
On a clear day - you can see an aircraft lining up to depart so you can slow down a bit to give yourself some space. Usually ATC does that for you - asking one to slow down or the other to hurry up.
Sometimes the sequencing gets a bit tight, it's annoying, you just power up and go around. Depending on visibility - you can circle in the circuit area to come back around, or follow the missed approach and line up to fly the approach (ILS, RNP etc) again.
Now the hard thing here is that it was IFR weather - the incoming aircraft got visible with the runway when it was lower, and it didn't look like the departing aircraft was lifting off so they went around. It also means they have to follow the missed approach.
Everyone was (mostly) aware of where everyone was, there was no real breakdown in communication nor in procedure. Departing aircraft knew there was one incoming and thought they had time, incoming knew there was a plane leaving and knew there might not be enough time. ATC is trying to keep the ball rolling for both. It's happened dozens of times for me.
Final note - a Missed Approach procedure specifically takes you to safe place away from departing aircraft, who follow their own Standard Instrument Departures precisely because of this scenario. It's incredibly rare for these two procedures to converge / overlap.
P.s. I've gone around / gone missed for everything from slow aircraft to gliders to a snake to wind shear to kangaroos. Literally the last few things just before landing you check are that your gear is down, you have clearance to land and the runway is clear.
Most of the South Pacific / South Atlantic / Southern Ocean (Antarctic); a lot of the North Pacific / North Atlantic / Indian / Arctic outside of the major islands and direct routes has nearly no coverage.
I've found it made a massive difference for me, give it a shot and pass the word along.

Which plays a youtube video?
It's a subdomain takeover, but not as we would normally think of it (getting access to the DNS settings and pointing them to what we want) but from getting "access" to the server the subdomain already points to.
Would you rather have a US passport living in UAE or Bali or Australia, or would you prefer to have an Iranian one?
I'm not saying the taxation is "right", as nearly all other nations don't care, just highlighting what folks would argue it's for.
More or less they were fired on the spot, and they'd have to find some legal means to recoup any backpay / severance from Twitter (Musk).
In OP's words, they're the landlord who did not get paid and the tenant (Musk / Twitter) is abusing their power.
That is not them being untrustworthy, it's signalling that they will move if they are not recognised for their work and growth.
Generally it takes 3-6 months to get productive at a new role, another 6 months to generally show competency / growth, and the last 6 months is spent waiting for recognition that you are willing to move up.
Unfortunately the most common growth structures dictate that people need to "act" as if they're in a more senior role already, alongside doing their existing one, and maybe they might get the title and salary bump. Often they don't, or are promised at their next review. Most just move.
If there's a group of 3-6 month (or shorter) spots, then I'm certainly asking about the work that happened during those.
The difference between them depends on where you are on the globe - it could even be 180 if you happen to stand in the middle of the two!
Magnetic compasses always point to magnetic north, but with earth being molten metals - magnetic north likes to move around a bit, so we work out the difference between the two and apply it to the directions we track.
For example, where I am - the difference is around 11 degrees. In order to head directly west, I can't just let my compass point north and go directly perpendicular port - I have to point north plus 11 degrees, and then go. My actual track will be 281 degrees magnetic, not 270.
What's more interesting is that most navigation charts have all their directions and bearings in "true" north, with the variance also charted, whereas when you actually fly you track the magnetic headings plus/minus the variance. If you go long enough - the variance also changes so you have to take that into account when planning your route.
When you take off / land, runway headings directly corresponding to your heading are a good sanity check - alarm bells go off if you're meant to be flying west but come across Runway 09 in front of you (the opposite!), not to mention we still rely on magnetic compasses - you don't want to be coming into land at a track for 281 degrees and see 27 painted on it; chances are something went wrong somewhere.
Roughly 30% of English speakers in the UK are bilingual (or more).
The aim of this is not to improve peoples english ability, it's to ensure that they can understand and access the relevant gov services they require.
There are a significant amount of Gov services available from childhood to adult education to learn, or improve their English separately to this.
Honestly if that's how a co-founder treats potential employees and their working relationships, that to me is a reflection on who they are as a person and the culture they'll end up building, which isn't one I'd want to be a part of.
Same role (iOS), I'm coming from another YC company. I wouldn't be surprised we applied for the same role and had the same experience.
Maybe something like;
- Mac, MacBook, iPhone, iPad, Watch
And you can get them in:
- Mini, Max or just "normal size"
With your choice of:
- M?, M? Pro, M? Ultra
Running
- MacOS, iOS, iPadOS, watchOS
We've already got a "mini" iPhone (SE), MacBook (Air), Mac. Plus the normal sized ones; 14" for the laptops and studio for the Mac, and then max being 16" laptops, or a tower mac, and the 12.9" tablet etc. Same for the watch too, and the iMac has played around the 21/24/27 sizes already.
Perhaps I just don't understand the product differential requirements from branding / marketing perspectives.
SpaceX, Tesla etc would not be where they are now without all the funding Musk was able to secure and source from governments (grants, tax breaks, investments etc), and then investors - that's probably his biggest contribution.
Generally - in my experience - folks that genuinely want to answer or explain something will first rephrase the question, and/or ask more questions to understand what you are trying to ask, and then after their answer they open the dialogue with something akin to "does that answer your question?".
Those hundred odd pages probably have specific clauses in there for what constitutes impersonation, repercussions and remediations etc - amongst their internal policies on resolution.
Chances are they've ignored their own legal T&C's for internal policies or "accepted practices" - which will definitely get their legal arm to review a few things.
I'd say that's closer to going 110km/h or 65mph in 2nd or 3rd gear for most cars.
