Again :)
For the 3rd time actually if you count not converting after my internship with you.
your HN profiles about section is out of date, just saying.
Technically not until tomorrow which is my last day. Thanks for the reminder!
Seems like everyone is leaving Google lately. Best of luck Gabor.
Nobody works at Google anymore, it's too crowded.
I hear they have plenty of space over at AOL and Yahoo! though ;)
If they'd let me in, the bar would be to low and I wouldn't want to work there anymore..
I thought people had an idea first before leaving!?!
If you did have an idea before leaving it'd still be wise to "have" the idea after you left, out of an overabundance of legal caution.
Good point - I wouldn't be too worried about Google's lawyercats (unless you do something egregious) but for other companies this may be really important.
not necessarily. sometimes people just need a break to sit around and think/relax before diving in again. plus, if you have the money sitting around to chill for a while, this is an appealing option.
This comment got me thinking: http://blog.gaborcselle.com/2012/06/i-thought-people-had-ide...
Plus if Gabor doesn't come up with another successful idea before he needs money (which I doubt), he can always get a day job again to pay the rent.
I wonder if people are staying for less of their earn-outs now than in the past.
I would guess I'm actually above average just based on my personal sample of people who have gotten acquired.
meaning stayed longer than average?
Good luck. Hope to see you soon!
