I am. The company I work for was recently bought. I’d been there 8 years so I got a couple of months they’re still keeping me on.
But the guy that had 1 idea 30+ years ago got $30,000,000 for all the risk he assumed in hiring other devs with money he already had to build his idea.
This wasn’t just like installing a straight pipe and bypassing emissions regulations, this was a vendor who applied for a license to sell these parts and then just didn’t wait for approval to sell the parts multiple times.
