I suspect he won't want to get into thorny PR issues, but probably company organization. It's easy to imagine a disorganized startup scaling poorly, and those within it wanting guidance from highly-scaled FB.
It seems you are implying that this sort of arrangement is fundamentally unhealthy for a market focused on accurate price discovery, and I think that's trivially true.
Some investing incentives are aligned with accurate price discovery, some are not (warren buffet vs a pump and dump).
Seems like a minor technical challenge (at least in the case of games)
1. Set up a pseudo-adversary NN trained to recognize context-correct speech based on a small corpus.
2. Craft a GPT-3 prompt to get N 9s of accuracy
3.Retry if the answer fails the test from the other NN
4. Set a cap on retries based on how many 9s your prompt got
5. If cap exceeded, return a context-free or limited context response
As you said, we have a little bubble on guns & ammo in the US right now.
Basic NATO 5.56 - ie, cheap enough for practice or poorly equipped grunts - is probably ~$0.30/round. However, it doesn't specify the caliber or load.
Loads designed for combat and not practice - like armor piercing, barrier penetration, soft target performance, precision, short barrel optimized, etc. - could be ~2-7x more expensive, and more indicative of a serious organizational problem.
Small arms calibers could include .50BMG, which is also a much larger cost & problem.
From a terminal ballistics background, it seems very unlikely that this injury would appear to be a gunshot wound.
Bullets behave very differently according to their mass and velocity, not just their energy. A wound channel for this a particle would likely be very different from any bullet.
I agree that prevention is the best method. For many people, therapy is more like basic self-care (ie, brushing your teeth) than a new limb. There are a great number of experiences that can batter us emotionally, and we can access therapy now while we work to fix these societal problems.

Let's assume that this event is Google officially jumping the shark (in terms of workplace desirability, which has decreased due to moral turpitude and a gradually lowering engineering bar).
Who's the new Google? Is there a company that can pick up the mantle of near-universal desirability to software engineers? I don't think it's any of the other FAANGs.
